Donate Goods
Many people want to know how they can contribute to the care and rehabilitation of wildlife when they do not have the time to set aside for volunteering. There are many consumable and non-consumable items that are used regularly at Wild Days which you may be in a position to donate.
It may be that you are able to add one extra item to your shopping each week, it may be only a couple of dollars, which may go unnoticed in the grand total. After a few weeks you will have accumulated a wonderful donation to the shelter that will make a difference to our ongoing care of the animals in need.
Below we have listed many different items you can choose from. Some are available in supermarkets, others in pet shops or produce shops, others in variety stores. When you have a donation for Wild Days, contact us to arrange a drop off/pick up time. We thank you in advance for your generosity!
