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 or monthly your support helps create a safer world for local wildlife.
