How to resolve AdBlock issue? Blue Ridge Wildlife Center's Raccoon Caging fundraiser
Help us build new raccoon caging NOW! Donations made this week will be DOUBLED up to $10,000 by a very generous donor!
Given the challenging permitting regulations associated with caring for raccoons, fewer rehabilitators are able to admit these animals each year. At the same time, ever increasing development means that humans are more likely to encounter raccoons and have conflicts.
New caging will allow us to care for more raccoons next season. Please donate now!
Facebook pays all the processing fees for you, so 100% of your donation goes directly to this project. See Less
