5th Annual WBF Flocktail Party: Help us Grow!

5th Annual WBF Flocktail Party: Help us Grow!
You are cordially invited to join us for the 5th Annual Wild Bird Fund Flocktail Party, a benefit for New York City's first and only wildlife rehabilitation & education center.  We look forward to seeing you at this wildly spectacular party, at the "Birdie" Vanderbilt Mansion, home of the Carlton Hobbs Gallery. If you cannot attend, please consider making a donation and/or becoming a member of Wild Bird Fund at www.wildbirdfund.org. WBF does not receive funding from any public agency. We are supported by individual donations from caring New Yorkers and 60% of our work is done by our 200+ volunteers. Since our doors opened our patient numbers have doubled. As word of our unique service reaches the public throughout the NYC area, more and more people bring distressed wildlife to our door. So much so, we are expanding to build New York's first "Wildlife ER" with an x-ray machine, operating room and intensive care units. Your ticket purchase/donation will supply critical funding for medical supplies, food, equipment, and operating expenses, to give New York City's wildlife the fighting chance it deserves.  With your help, we will keep growing! Rita McMahon, Director Wild Bird Fund, Inc. is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit.  EIN 32-0155774 Ticket price is tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.
