How You Can Help

Jedi - Merlin Falcon
There are a variety of ways you can support Tamarack’s efforts to rehabilitate injured wildlife and educate the public about the many wonderful creatures with whom we share the planet:

Financial:
  • Sponsor one of our exciting education birds for just $25 per year.
  • Book an educational program for school-organization.
  • Remember Tamarack in memory of a loved one.
  • Become a member.
  • Make a monetary donation in the amount of your choice—no contribution is too small.
  • Organize a fundraiser and make Tamarack the beneficiary.
  • Collect aluminum cans and donate proceeds to the center.
    Volunteer
    Tamarack welcomes the talents and gifts of people in a broad spectrum of ways:
    • Take the First Responders course and be a wildlife dispatcher.
    • Join other volunteers and staff in the weekly care of the education birds and wildlife in treatment.
    • Assist staff in presenting education programs.
    • Offer skills in plumbing or carpentry on special projects.
    In-kind Donations
    Many supplies are still needed:
    • Duct tape
    • Boxes, computer sized
    • Bleach
    • Paper towels
    • Pillow cases, flat sheets
    • Wood shavings
    • Gift certificates, phone cards
    • Digital Camera
    • Frozen wild caught fish
    • Stamps
    Think outside the box
    Because Tamarack is a unique place, it offers unique ways to help. Here are a few:
    • Live minnows—we often treat birds that require live fish, but these are extremely expensive to purchase. Donated minnows are a huge help.
    • Frozen fish and venison for birds of prey. Do you have a freezer full of last year’s crappie or deer steaks? Give it to Tamarack!

    Call the center for more information on how to make any donation. Phone: 814/763-2574
    Thank you!
