The recent fires in Australia have taken a tremendous toll on the wildlife native to the area, causing about 500 million to one billion deaths and destroying the natural habitats of many of those who survived.
Past donations from generous clients and memorial donations from the Rhinebeck Animal Hospital have enabled the Rhinebeck Animal Hospital Helping Hand Fund to donate $2500.00 to assist in helping the wildlife affected by the massive Australian fire crisis.
We have also committed to “match” up to another $2500.00 from public donations made by February 15th to further assist in this very worthy cause. If you would like to participate, please mail/deliver a check payable to the Rhinebeck Animal Hospital Helping Hand Fund or call us to make a credit card donation in any amount. (Sending your donation to Rhinebeck Animal Hospital allows us to match it.)
We have researched many organizations to find the one that we believe will most directly assist in the recovery from this disaster. All donations made to the RAH Helping Hand Fund will receive an emailed receipt and will go directly to New South Wales Information, Rescue and Education Service (WIRES) in your name along with our matching gift that will double your effort.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call (845) 876-6008 and ask for Sandi or email [email protected]. You can learn more about WIRES and their cause at wires.org.au.
Thank you for your concern and consideration,
The doctors and Staff of Rhinebeck Animal Hospital
