We Need YOUR Help! Every year, hundreds of pet birds are bred in captivity and many of those parrots may one day be in need of our organization due to their owner's ill health, passing away, change in lifestyle, neglect, abuse, etc. In order to ensure that we can help parrots we need your support. Caring for the parrots, providing support and most involves more than many can begin to realize. Approximately 10-15 parrots a month are in need of our services. As their popularity increases as “pets” the number will inevitably increase as well. Although we do have our permanent residents we also have parrots here that are disabled and that we will be posting information about soon. We also get unexpected arrivals on our doorstep. This year we have seen many budgies who were just left on our doorstep in need of our care. Your generous support provides the funds for medicine, vitamins, fruit, vegetables, special equipment for disabled parrots, maintenance, cages, heating, lighting, education materials, repair costs, gas allowance, and more!

Pennies for Parrots Pennies for Parrots is one of our ongoing fund raisers that take place throughout the year in various forms. At events people are able to donate money to this fund and soon at various stores province wide. We also will be designating one day in the year as “Pennies for Parrots” day. Those wishing to take part will be sent an information package and asked to find sponsors to donate an amount of their choice. Then on the designated day people in your area will get together to walk through your area showing your support for such a worth while cause. The individual to raise the most money receives a lifetime membership, SF T-shirt and Greeting cards. We are looking for coordinators for this event for areas throughout all of Ontario.
