Make A Donation to SBWCN

Every Life We Save Starts with a Gift from You!

Thanks to People Like you, we’re able to care for thousands of wild animals every year.


When a cold and orphaned baby raccoon arrives and finds shelter and care… when an owl gets her broken wing healed… when an opossum is strong enough to be released back into the wild—that moment is made possible by people like you.


As a nonprofit, the Santa Barbara Wildlife Care Network relies on donations to fund every rescue, every recovery, every release. Whether you give once, monthly, or through your estate, your support creates a safer world for local wildlife.

A hand is holding a heart in its palm.

One-Time Donation

Give Now. Save a Life Today.

A single donation can provide formula for a nest of orphaned raccoons, emergency surgery for a hawk, or clean bedding for a recovering seabird.

From featherless songbirds to wide-eyed fawns, spring brings a tidal wave of fragile lives needing urgent care. It's Baby Season at the Santa Barbara Wildlife Care Network—a time when over a thousand injured and orphaned babies arrive at our doors. Each one has a story. Each one needs a second chance. And you can be the reason they survive.
