testimonials

Compass Cares, the CSI arm of Compass Medical Waste Services (Pty) Ltd, is very proud to be associated and in partnership with CROW since our first calendar project in 2011 / 2012. The first CROW calendar went on sale in 2012 and has grown exponentially on an annual basis. On a personal note, I can vouch for their ethical values, financial stewardship and, most importantly, their passion and care for the animals who pass through their centre on a daily basis and can’t speak for themselves.

Ian du Randt / Managing Director Compass Medical Waste Services

I cannot over emphasise the importance of the work done by CROW. As a member of the KZN provincial Legislature, I can confirm that little to no budget is available to assist injured or orphaned wildlife. CROW is a credible and registered organisation simply doing outstanding work.
