On April 8, 2025 ARC Wild's rehabilitation facility burned to the ground. The fire was all consuming destroying every piece of equipment and sadly, all wildlife in the facility were lost. It has been a devastating loss but we have faith that like Noah's Ark, ARC Wild too can weather any storm. We will rebuild.
To do that we NEED your help more than ever. Rehabilitation facilities and organizations we've worked with have pledged equipment to refurbish a new facility. Now we just have to build something to hold it all. Please consider helping us. It is a monumental task that cannot be completed quickly enough. To make room for the 30-40 animal calls we take each day, our ARC Wild animal ambassadors have been moved into the directors home and the nature center is currently being used for orphaned babies. We have no incubators, no catch poles, no carriers, no gloves, no food or medical supplies. We are ordering it as we go. If every person we've helped these past 16 years gave just $10 it would help us reach our goal of $65,000.
ARC Wild is a 501(c)3 organization which means your gift is tax deductible. For every phone call, every trip to rescue animals, every moment spent educating the public, please give a little back.
100% of monies raised will go directly to fund the new facility and the Director has already pledged $15,000 to start the fund. ARC Wild’ receives $0 in state or government and our entire staff is 100% volunteer.
We provide 24/7 hotline response, wildlife rescue and live animal education programs to Nemaha, Brown, Atchison, Doniphan, Jackson, Marshall and Washington counties in Kansas.
Here is how we spent the donations we received in 2024:
* We expanded the ARC Wild Ranger program to include more kids.
* We expanded the ARC Wild coverage area to include Nemaha, Brown, Jackson, Atchison,
Doniphan, Potawatomie, Marshal and Washington counties in Kansas for wildlife rescue.
