LILY SANCTUARY
Invite reviews
I have been with the Lily Sanctuary for over 6 years now. This is wonderful place. I have seen real life miracles happen with bird happen here. Birds that were severely traumatized or neglected received real healing and ultimately new loving forever homes. The dedication to the betterment of the lives of every bird that comes to the sanctuary by Venette Hill, director, and volunteer staff is amazing. It takes a great deal of time and commitment DAILY to take care of the birds. These needs are surpassed each day by the volunteers that come EVERY DAY to clean cages, dishes and give all the birds outside play time in the outdoor aviaries.

Purchase an adequate facility with on site living quarters, a full time staff of caretakers including a vet, groomer, and cleaning staff
Ways to make it better...
Nothing to say here
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
MONEY! For the past 2 years the decline of donations has dropped over 50%. It is only by a miracle that they have been able to keep going to date.
One thing I'd also say is that...
There is no one more dedicated to these birds than Venette Hill. Dispite severe health challenges, she forges on through her own pain to see to it that the needs of these beautiful birds are met daily. The Hill's deserve a huge break!..ENOUGH FUNDING!
