My Nonprofit Reviews

Kay Neumann is one of the most dedicated people I have ever met. She cares for every feathered baby that comes in the door. She works tirelessly with a sick or injured bird and worries about them until they are back on the mend or has to make that difficult decision to end the suffering. It is a constant worry where the next dollar is going to come from and how she is going to feed all of them. She is constantly driving to pick up or meet someone with an injured bird and she has devoted her "extra" time to educate others about these amazing birds. She is one AWESOME person!

Two years ago I did not even know SOAR existed. After the Decorah eagles went viral, I became more interested in birds of prey. My sister met Kay and eventually we ended up at Kay's home and SOAR's home for a tour. Kay could not have been more kind and patient. She explained how the process works from intake to release or education bird. Her work is endless and she is such a dedicated person. We had a family day (The Great Outdoors) last year in May and Kay brought two birds over for it. The children, especially, and the parents were fascinated with them and she brought a new awareness of raptors to the entire group. I'm not sure how she handles the workload, but her energy and attitude are contagious and her face shines with pride when she has a "baby" ready for release. I am sure that she struggles to make ends meet, but she never gives up. I am truly honored to know her and I am in awe of her tireless work.
