You can help The Avian Reconditioning Center by sponsoring one of our raptor residents through the Adopt-a-Bird program.
Adoption sponsorship donations help us with the cost of food, housing supplies, medicine and veterinary care for the resident raptors at our facility and also help fund our rehabilitation efforts.
Our monthly food costs alone are usually in excess of $1,000 and can be double that during a busy baby season. Your donation is tax-deductible as allowed by law and your support is truly appreciated. Thank you for helping us help the birds!

Adopt-a-Bird Packet
When you sponsor the care of one of our resident raptors, you receive a packet of information on the chosen bird. In addition to a personalized adoption certificate and photo of your bird, you get your bird’s biography, species information, general information on raptors and a subscription to ARC’s newsletter. If the packet is for a child, we include coloring and activity sheets.
If this is a gift, please click the "add special instructions to seller" during checkout and provide the recipient's name, mailing info, and a personal message to be included.
