Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
In 2024 our organization provided emergency rescue and medical care for 596 domestically bred and non-releasable pigeons and doves who were abandoned, sick, injured, and/or starving. Because of the hard work of our committed volunteers and collaborations within our communities, we exceeded our goal for 2024 and our long term goal is to continue and expand this lifesaving work.$0$77,015
700 rescued birds received care, medical treatment, and housing in 2024. This met our goal for this time period. Long term goal includes continuing to provide lifesaving care for these otherwise neglected, abandoned birds, thus striving to spread compassion and inspire hope throughout our communities.$10,000$52,000
In 2024, our organization trained and cultivated new rescue foster volunteers for 86 birds, which entails caring for the physical and emotional wellbeing of pigeons or doves who are waiting for their forever home. The new foster volunteers are trained by our volunteer coaches, and our organization provides cages and basic supplies along with continual support for the new fosters. This met our goal for the year, which we plan long term to expand annually as the more foster homes we have, the more pigeons and doves we are able to rescue and to care for.$0$5,000
