Raptor Center fundraising for UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA FOUNDATION

This year, we are thrilled that the first $27,000 in gifts to The Raptor Center on Give to the Max Day will be matched by two loyal donor families: Rachel & Denny Hollstadt and the Sarah J. Andersen Fund of the Hugh J. Andersen Foundation.

Your gifts are essential to helping us continue the work we do. Your gifts help provide resources needed to rehabilitate sick and injured birds, help educate conservation-minded veterinarians and veterinary students, and allow us to reach out to the community with our unique educational programs. But that's not all. Your donations also support exciting studies that help us understand how changes in the natural world affect raptors. We think all of these missions play a critical role in ensuring healthy populations of these wonderful birds in the wild.

    I went for the first time this Fall and loved it! I especially loved learning about how tiny many of these raptors really are.

    The Raptor Center at the U of MN is a wonderful educational experience for young and old alike and there is nothing more inspirational to me than watching a rehabilitated raptor being set free into the wild. Way to go Raptor Center and keep up the great work!
