Sponsor a Day

Sponsor a Day at the Wildlife Medical Clinic


Every day, injured, ill, or orphaned wild animals arrive at the Wildlife Medical Clinic for compassionate, expert care. When you sponsor a Day, you directly support the medical treatment, food, housing, and enrichment that our patients and ambassador animals rely on.

While individual items make a meaningful difference sponsoring an entire day amplifies your impact—supporting every patient, every student, and every moment of care that happens within that 24-hour period.

Make an Immediate Impact

For $350, you can cover the cost of one full day of care, supporting both the animals and the veterinary students who learn through this hands-on experience. Sponsorships are also a meaningful way to celebrate a birthday, honor a loved one, or mark a special occasion.
