Leave A Legacy
We are building a legacy here that will provide for the wildlife of New York State long after we are gone.
If you would also like to become an angel for animals, please consider remembering the Charles N. Gordon Wildlife Rehabilitation Center in your will. EIN: 83-279618
We are also able to accept donations of assets, land, and stocks.
The wildlife (and we) will be eternally grateful.
Recycle the love
Drop your returnables off to a Caz Cans location in Hamilton or Cazenovia.
Tell them the proceeds go to Gordon Wildlife and they will do the rest!
Shop for us
We spend more than a thousand dollars per season on Fox Valley Raccoon Milk Replacer which we purchase from Fox Valley Animal Nutrition. If you would like to donate formula specifically, we would welcome a gift card from their website store.
Shavings for our enclosures and solid pet foods are purchased locally from DeRuyter Farm and Garden Coop. You may contact them and ask to make a gift payment towards the account for Gordon Wildlife.
We are always looking for durable human infant toys such as those pictured. Shop garage sales for gently used items that may be disinfected.
Plastic play equipment and cat trees are always needed!
You may also shop our wish lists on Amazon and Chewy.
There are many ways to support us and our work here at Gordon Wildlife. If you aren’t in a position to make a financial donation but you have time, energy, or skills to share, please check out our section on volunteering.
