AKBRC Day of Caring
​May 22, 2022


     Alaska WildBird Rehabilitation Center was honored to host a crew of energetic and hard-working volunteers from Mat Valley Federal Credit Union on the recent United Way Day of Caring. During the week May 23-26 volunteers from local businesses and the community offer to assist non-profit organizations with springtime projects.
        This year we had two big projects to complete; covering the slatted openings of our rehab bird flight cages with wire mesh as predator proofing, and thoroughly clean out our storage trailer after a squirrel
invasion. The 8 volunteers completed both projects with time to spare! Thanks to Jasmine, Nikki, Kayla, Jeremiah, Crystal, Mandy and Ciara.
        We are very grateful for their able assistance and to MVFCU for supporting their volunteering efforts.​

If you find an injured bird...

It's that time of year when baby birds might need a little help to find their way!

Due to the danger of Avian Flu we will not be taking in injured birds. 

We will help direct you in caring for an injured bird and contacting Anchorage Bird TLC where they can provide treatment.  
PLEASE read these directions!
​Found or injured bird directions

Your donations allow us to continue our education programs, feeding and housing the Education Ambassador birds, and providing rescue and rehabilitation services for the Mat-Su Valley.

Dear Alaska WildBird Rehabilitation Center supporters

As we approach winter still under Covid-19 concerns, Alaska WildBird Rehabilitation Center is adjusting operations to cope with continued restrictions.   The public will still only be allowed to interact with the staff outdoors, on the porch or in the parking area.  While we have allowed increased staffing of volunteers where needed, we are diligent in use of masks, social distancing and sanitization. 

If you have an injured bird, wish to make a donation of supplies or food, or otherwise need to visit the center, we ask that you call ahead.  For those very much appreciated financial donations, we ask that you either use the mail or our secure website donate button.
Our entire staff and volunteer team thank you for your support and concerns.

Rehabilitate

Getting injured birds "back on their feet"
​with the goal of releasing back to the wild.  
​
Picture

Educate

Education birds have an injury that prevents them from being released back into the wild.  Some of these birds can become part of our education program .
