Re: Wildlife Rescue -> Rehabilitate -> Release

YAY  Love this post!

Let me add one thing that really is workign for us … education.  I started introducing a bit more human-wildlife interaction stuff in my classroom programs for kids and it is really making a difference.  Teachers are even specifically requesting that now and it is creating a new type of peer pressure - pressure to protect!

Jen, did you know that you can start your own non profit and raise funds and awareness for your cause?  We have a turn-key system that can have your non profit up and running within 8 weeks for a fraction of the cost of a private 501(c)3.  We can help!

Email me for the link to a FREE webinar to find out how!

Cheering you on!
