Ways To Give

Your donation goes to work right away, helping us care for wild birds and animal friends every year at the Raptor Center of Tampa Bay.

There are other ways you can help. Visit our volunteer page for more information.

We’re all in this together!

Make your contribution today and join us in helping Florida’s feathered friends on their journey back to health.

Every time you donate to the Raptor Center of Tampa Bay you help our injured, sick and orphaned native birds. Your donation also will support our educational initiatives.

The Raptor Center of Tampa Bay has changed its mission. Although we have rescued, treated and rehabilitated thousands and thousands of birds and animals always with the goal to release them back into the wild, it's not enough! Our shared experiences as advocates of wildlife have painted a vivid story about the importance of education and outreach. Our new mission is much bigger. It is to Save The Planet!
