Why do we require a fee for
an educational program?
Centre Wildlife Care is a
volunteer-based non-profit, organization that is not funded by any
governmental agency. We rely on donations and program fees so we
can provide food, housing and veterinary care for the animals. All those things cost money. Any donation or program fees will go
directly toward the care of orphaned and injured wild animals until they can be
released back into the wild.
CWC has all the required licensing to do educational programs with wild animals from the PA Game Commission, the Federal Fish and Wildlife Service and the USDA.
