Protect Native Wildlife This Giving Tuesday!

Giving Tuesday is a global movement and annual event that takes place on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving. This year's date is December 2, 2025. This special day encourages people to give back to their communities, support non-profit organizations, and make charitable donations. It's a day dedicated to generosity and philanthropy.

Join us this Giving Tuesday to protect and preserve Florida’s wildlife! Your donation to Busch Wildlife Sanctuary will help provide vital care for injured animals, support conservation efforts, and foster environmental education. We couldn't do all we do without you. Together, we can make a difference for the animals and natural habitats that need us most. Give today to keep our wildlife thriving. THANK YOU!
