Wildlife Medical Care Program
Each year, WildCare delivers world-class medical care to as many as 3,500 ill, injured and orphaned wild animal patients in our open-admission wildlife hospital. Over the course of our history in wildlife medicine, we have given more than 120,000 wild animals a second chance at life in the wild.WildCares patients represent more than 200 different species, and over 90% of the wild animals we have helped have been injured or orphaned as a result of human interaction. Our goal is always to treat and heal our wild animal patients, and release them back to their wild lives.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesOct 1, 2021 – Sep 30, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$1.8MTerwilliger Nature Education Programs
WildCares Terwilliger Nature Education programs provide school and youth programs, as well as family nature outings, which connect over 16,000 children and adults to the Bay areas abundant open spaces and wildlife. Our programs aim to strengthen environmental stewardship and responsibility by teaching an appreciation of nature and a respect for wildlife. Our experiential and academically supportive approach to environmental education attracts participation from more than 130 schools and community organizations for the eight Bay Area counties. Through our scholarship program, WildCare is able to provide our programs to students from disadvantaged and low-income backgrounds, so these students no longer have to miss out on nature discovery opportunities that ignite a sense of excitement about science and foster personal connections to the natural world. Through free family nature outings, our robust scholarship and bilingual programming (Spanish/English) ensure that children and families from diverse backgrounds have equal access to environmental education. This is a non-cash scholarship program. The scholarship is a discount of WildCares normal educational program fees using the percentage of the student body used to establish eligibility under the free and reduced lunch program of each school. In past years, an estimated 34% of students participating in our youth programs received a scholarship.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesOct 1, 2021 – Sep 30, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$698.1KWildlife Advocacy and Education

Our Hungry Owl Project builds, installs and promotes the use of owl nesting boxes to encourage the use of natural predators, like Barn Owls, to control rodents. Our advocacy team speaks out and encourages community action against harms to wildlife including the use of rat poisons, illegal trapping, tree-trimming during wildlife baby season and many more.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesOct 1, 2021 – Sep 30, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided––
