Fish for Penguins
Donation protected
I'm fundraising to help buy fish to feed the Little Penguins in care at Penguin Rehab & Release in Burnie, Tasmania.
Penguin Rehab & Release is a volunteer group and relies on donations from the public to fund its important work of rehabilitating sick and injured seabirds and is currently running very low on funds.
This has been a very busy season, with 33 penguins already having been successfully rehabilitated and released into the wild. There are still currently 16 penguins being cared for at the facility as they regain their health and strength ready for release. With such a large number of penguins in care it has been very expensive and funds have run out. It costs approximately $400 to buy enough fish to feed the penguins currently in care for one week. Penguin Rehab & Release urgently need help to be able to cover these costs and get these penguins through the rest of their rehabilitation and back out into the ocean where they belong.
All funds I raise will go to Penguin Rehab & Release and will be used to purchase food and other rehabilitation essentials.
