My Nonprofit Reviews

I became involved with the Wildlife Center of Virginia almost a year ago, when by a great misfortune the female eagle of Norfolk Botanical Gardens was struck by an airplane and killed. The 3 young eaglets were removed from the nest and taken to the WCV to be raised and eventually released back in to the wild. There were alot of followers of the WVEC eagle cam and alot of followers of the eaglets. The WCV jumped into action to bring us a live feed, so we could continue to follow the adventures of these eaglets. I have a soft spot for eagles and all wildlife in general. President, Ed Clark and the Staff at the WCV, began to show and teach not only myself but everyone watching and on the moderated blog about the challenges and issues faced by all raptors. When the Critter Cam was born it introduced not only us (those following the eagles) but classrooms to other patients and educational ambassadors at the wildlife center. I have learned so much being involved with this stellar organization. I have great respect and admiration for the entire team at the WCV for the work they do. I also support other organizations here in NY, but I am forever going to be an avid supporter of the wildlife center. They are a world class teaching hospital and an assett to all wildlife. I wish I had known about this organization years ago. It's amazing how the tragic loss of Lady Legacy has brought so many people together and has formed friendships betwen people we have never met (yet).
