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.

Cally Barnes, a past volunteer, ran the London Marathon on April 28th. She worked hard to get sponsors before the race and was able to raise and donate $836 to the Rescue. We are so appreciative Cally... thank you so much for your kindness and generous donation. Cally told us to use the donation for what we felt was best so we decided to allocate the funds to finish the raccoon/coati new enclosure. There have been numerous donations towards this project and we plan to recognize all of them with a visual plaque when its finished. Side note...Cally also ran the race in 4 hours and 6 seconds.
