Make a Gift, Make a Difference
The Giaquinto Wildlife Center is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and every donation directly supports the rescue, rehabilitation, and education programs that make our mission possible. Your generosity helps provide essential food, medical care, and safe housing for injured and orphaned wildlife, as well as fund free community education programs with our ambassador barn owl, Bella.
Bella alone consumes two to three mice each day and enjoys a quail dinner once a week, and she visits her veterinarian twice a year to ensure she remains healthy. All contributions are fully tax-deductible, allowing you to support wildlife conservation while receiving the benefits of a charitable donation.
Our nonprofit is a registered 501(c)(3), and our Employee Identification Number (EIN) is 04-3431953 for your tax-deductible contribution.
(We are a fiscally sponsored organization of The Marlborough Regional Community Foundation Inc, a registered 501 (c)(3) organization.)

Frozen Food Donation
You can also support the Giaquinto Wildlife Center by donating a Rodent Pro gift card. Bella, our ambassador barn owl, enjoys two to three mice each day and a quail once a week, and gift cards help us purchase the high-quality food she needs to remain healthy. A Rodent Pro gift card is a simple, meaningful way to make a direct impact on the daily care of our ambassador animal.
Thank you for your heartfelt support!
