Wild & Free 2021
2021-10-21 18:00 - 20:00 | CA
JOIN US FOR OUR ANNUAL FUNDRAISING EVENT!
Since our inception over 40 years ago, Lake Tahoe Wildlife Care has successfully released over 17,000 birds and animals to their native habitats. Everything we do is to ensure orphaned and injured animals can be released back to the wild.
When we started our annual fundraising event in 2017, we wanted it first and foremost to focus on the vital role our donors play in making it possible for so many animals to live “Wild & Free” once again.
This year, join us for an online evening full of LTWC stories and support LTWC through our interactive auction! Funds raised will go directly to helping LTWC care for injured and orphaned wild birds and animals. Sign-in opens at 6 p.m. Event begins at 6:30 p.m.
We look forward to sharing a wonderful (virtual) evening with you!
