Grateful wildlife, saying thank you

It has been one year since our emergency appeal, and thanks to our incredible Guardians and supporters, CROW’s doors are still open. In the past 12 months, together we have made a profound impact on South Africa’s wildlife, rescuing, rehabilitating, and releasing countless animals back into their natural habitats. The dedication of our Guardians, many of whom support us with the cost of just 1 or 2 cups of coffee per month (starting at only R50), has helped us rescue, rehabilitate, and release countless animals back to the wild.

As a Guardian, you will enjoy the following benefits:

Where your donation is going

CROW receives no government or municipal funding and are entirely reliant on private donors and sponsors for the operational running costs of our centre.

All Guardians donations go towards covering CROW’s essential operating costs such as its monthly vets and medical bills, animal food and fuel for our wildlife rescue and release vehicles. Whether you are looking to sign up as an individual, a family or a company, the Guardians is an effective way to make a tangible difference in the lives of our patients.
