By Yvonne Wallace Blane | Co-founder, Fellow Mortals Wildlife Hospital
On the eve of a new year, I thought it was important to let you know how much your gifts did for the 'least among us' this past year.
The wonderful people who recognize an injured or orphaned animal give a precious gift to the wild one in distress, but they very often can't help with the cost of food, supplies, medicine or care. It is only your support that bridges the gap between their caring and our caregiving.
Just a couple of days ago, a hawk was admitted from a busy downtown area. It had been rescued by a homeless woman who went into the post office to ask for a blanket to cover the bird. A kind man who realized what she was doing offered to drive the bird out to our hospital.
Gifts received through GlobalGiving in 2018 raised nearly $8,000--enough to provide ALL care for 53 birds and mammals who were saved from pain and suffering by a kind person who shares your compassion and respect for wildlife.
Whether it is a tiny mouse rescued from a parking lot, or a new-born fawn who lost her mother--you make happy endings possible for them, just as a local human charity has helped the woman who found the hawk.
Thanks to you, 53 precious lives were saved and will see the dawn of a new year with us.
With my heartfelt thanks that you have chosen to support Fellow Mortals' work.
