The mission of the Living Sky Wildlife Rehabilitation is to provide a safe place for injured and orphaned wild animals to grow and mend until they can return to their natural habitat while encouraging public tolerance and understanding of wildlife.
ERA was glad to support them with a laptop that will remain at the wildlife facility for their accountant to access and for all the forms to be available to staff. Here at ERA, we understand when organizations rely on donations and volunteers to keep their businesses afloat as we require the same assistance. Donating your used electronics is as simple as giving us a call or contacting us online. Schedule a pick up date with our team or visit one of our donation depots Canada-wide. We accept used desktops, notebooks, computer peripherals, software, and more.
Living Sky Wildlife Rehabilitation was created to formalize the work that Jan Shadick had been doing for several years. She took in 20 animals in 2005. This has grown consistently every year to a total of 484 animals in 2014 in demand; with 1290 injured and orphaned animals arriving in 2019.
Costs continue to grow each year as they receive more and more animals in need and in 2016 they moved to a separate when they took in over 650 animals.
Since the move, their services have been in demand, with 950 injured and orphaned animals arriving in 2017 and over 1160 in 2018. Their budget has grown to over $100,000, with less than $2000 of that going towards Administrative costs.
They continue to operate primarily with volunteers, except in the summer when they hire summer students, using government grants and donations to fund their salaries during the busiest season.
They need your help to continue to provide the level of care and attention that these animals require to grow and thrive upon their release back to their natural habitat. Please consider a donation today.
