Sponsor a day recognition for the Rushing family

Thank you to the Rushing family for sponsoring the clinic for today! A cherished supporter of our program, this day was chosen with a dual purpose, serving both as celebration of their beloved dog Granger and to begin our 1 week count down until our student volunteers return to the WMC! We have been working with a reduced crew since March 16th and couldn’t be more excited to have our volunteer base join our ranks once again. It is through the support of the Rushing family and others throughout our community that we are able to provide medical care to native Illinois wildlife, training opportunities for veterinary students, and share a message of conservation globally.
