Donations


Donations made to the Rescue Center make it possible for us to continue our mission of rescue, rehabilitation and when possible release. The kindness from our friends around the world as well as here in Costa Rica has truly made a difference in the lives of so many animals. Below is a list of recent donations that we were done online or we were able to upload manually to the system. However, there have been countless donors over the past 10 years who are not listed but their kindness and generosity has always been appreciated. If you are a past donor and are not listed we apologize and hope you will contact us direct at info@rescuecenter.com so we can recognize and acknowledge your generous donation with the others who are listed below.
