How To Donate Funds

Canada Helps

It takes less than 5 minutes. We particularly appreciate monthly donations because they make it easier for us to budget for wildlife needs over longer periods. We can also take charge card contributions over the phone at (778) 428-1990 or you can send or drop off a cheque if that is more convenient.

E-Transfer

If e-transferring is more convenient, please send to info@marswildliferescue.com Please include your full name and address if a tax receipt is required and indicate that the e-transfer is for donation. Thank you!

Gift-In-Kind

One method of gifting that we could not do without is the gift-in-kind. Building materials, labour, food for birds and animals, hospital supplies, veterinary expenses, crafting, caregiving, and office administration are just some of the many areas where the gift of giving need not be cash. Please contact us if you have special ways you’d like to give.

  • Courtenay Return-It Depot at 493 Puntledge Rd. (#135)
