Dear all,
2016 finished on a super high note thanks to your amazing generosity coupled with the match-a-million from the Gates Foundation.
In the last quarter of 2016 we raised just a few dollars short of a fabulous $5,500US. A respectable figure that will cover food expenses and pay the wonderful Oscar’s wages for two complete months! That is a great relief to us, I can assure you.
I have finally sent out our (embarrassingly belated) thank you packages today, and want to say once again a heartfelt thanks to all of you who contributed and have been so patiently waiting for your gifts. We hope you like them! Also a huge thanks to those of you who declined your gifts in favour of additional funds for BBR, or who asked to have them re-gifted. If you haven't received the package you expected within a month, please let me know: its either gone astray or there has been an administration error (me!)
All in all it’s been an amazing experience to see so many people helping us to help the birds of Belize. We are fast approaching baby season and will be on the campaign trail once again to raise precious funds to get us through those early expenses of baby food and intensive care for any and all species that may come our way.
Bless you all for your help, and please, please, please continue to spread the word: our 2017 goal is to cover the $2000US monthly food bill and Oscar’s $890 per month wages with donated funds. With your help and support, we are sure we can do it!
Thank you!
Nikki
