All donations to the World Parrot Refuge go directly toward the welfare and feeding of the birds.

The World Parrot Refuge operates under the auspices of the "For the Love Of Parrots Refuge Society" as a non-profit, charitable organization. With our current flocks totalling over 500 birds, and more arriving regularly, we need your help.

Monetary donations are the most flexible and useful in our daily operations, as they can be used to maintain the health and habitat of the birds as well as feed them. In recent years, Revenue Canada has changed and updated the rules regarding charitable donations, to make such gifts more rewarding to Canadians. We provide tax receipts for all donations, large or small. The following methods are available to you:

• Clicking on the following "Donate Now" button will take you to the CanadaHelps.org website and enable you to make a secure online donation via credit card.

• By cheque, payable to F.L.O.P.R.S. and sent to F.L.O.P.R.S. (For the Love Of Parrots Refuge Society), Box 645, Alberni Highway, Coombs BC, V0R 1M0
• By cash, when you are visiting the Refuge.

We understand that there is a personal limit to the amount that people can donate, no matter how worthwhile the charity. There are a number of ways you can help us to provide a "Home for Life" for previously owned pet parrots. Thank you!

We can always use donations of towels for the hospital, heating pads and sheets for special needs residents (some parrots can no longer perch). Medical supplies and equipment are also very much welcomed - please contact us for further details.

Our flocks happily go through a continuous supply of colourful toys made by our volunteers, constructed with natural wood, old childrens' toys including Fisher Price and Playskool toys and especially, love. The parrots love just about anything, from rattles to mobiles to noisy battery-operated toys!
