My Nonprofit Reviews

I came to the Endangered Wolf Center in December of 2002, my purpose was to learn more about the wolf so that I could help educate others on why they are an important species in our world and why it is so important to correct the wrongs that have been imposed on this animal.

What I found and have experienced was an organization that is so very passionate about saving wolves and other wild canids. The staff and animals have impacted my life in so many ways it is hard to put into words. The passion and commitment of the staff is second to none, the animals draw you in and the knowledge and passion of the volunteers leave you wanting to know how you can help.

I have participated in many tours, campfires, summer camps and other events and I am always re-energized by the responses of the visitors. Visitors leave the center with a great appreciation for the animals and their plight. Young campers come back year after year and fall in love with the animals, a junior volunteer program came out of the fact that young campers who had "aged" out of the summer camps wanted to keep coming. I have seen several of those young people go on to college to work in the conservation field and they all say it was because of their time at the center.

Participating in the breeding observations allowed me to gain insight to the pack life and see for myself what a wonderful animal the wolf is and the Endangered Wolf Center has proven throughout the last 43 years that their commitment and passion for wolves only continues to grow and they are striving to reach many more people and impact the survival of the majestic animal.

I encourage everyone I know to support the Endangered Wolf Center, I know I will.
