How much does it all cost???
A LOT! The Rainbow Wildlife Rescue went through over 50 lbs of Esbilac and KMR milk replacers in 2009, that's close to $3000 alone.
We spent a lot more on medical supplies, bottles, cleaning supplies, caging, bedding, canned food, dried feed, meat and fresh produce, live food, repairs, maintenance, and not to forget the utility bills that are 3 times as high than average when the rescue is full and the phone bill, which also triples during baby season.
About 30% of the cost were covered by donations and online fundraisers. A HUGE THANK YOU to everybody that had the heart and means to support our efforts!
The remaining 70% I earned with online jobs such as web design and hosting, site maintenance, translations, article writing, graphic design, etc.
Even though I enjoy these jobs, I'd wish I could spend that time focusing on the animals and education instead of earning the money for feeding them. This is where I need your help.
The following points are a few examples of how your donation can help:
- $1000 covers the utility bills for 3 months
- $ 500 pays for raising an infant raccoon
- $ 250 feeds a 3 opossums from infant to release
- $ 100 provides infant formula for 3 squirrels
- $ 50 pays for bird food from nestling to adult
- $ 40 pays for 30 lbs bag of Premium dog food
- $ 20 covers the de-wormer to fight internal parasites
- $ 10 provides fresh produce for 2 days
