Since 1990, we have helped to rescue and rehabilitate over 3,000 wild mammals. Established in 2015, the NWRF grew out of a need to support charitable wildlife rehabilitation organizations across Canada.
Our Mission
The National Wildlife Rehabilitation Foundation aims to improve the efficiency and capacity of our wildlife rescue and rehabilitation partners by raising money for them and by providing supplies, equipment, and educational aides.
“Besides love and sympathy, animals exhibit other qualities connected with the social instincts which in us would be called moral.”
Our goals
- Provide rescue, rehabilitation, and release assistance for each wild animal found by members of the public
- Raise over $50,000 in donations for 2016
- Promote events that raise public awareness on coexistence with wildlife and promote public support
- Expand the capacity of other rehabilitation centres by donating funds and equipment
- Continue supporting incredible groups like Bear With Us, Wild for Life, and Solitudes Wildlife Centre by providing funds, food, and supplies
