Recreating the missing post “Fill the toy Tree for Christmas”

Happy New Year to all who follow MARS, our Florida based parrot rescue.
Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary, EIN 80-0161378 was founded in 2008. Now entering into our 17th year, and just as determined as ever to better the lives of parrots in captivity.

The purpose of our almost annual fill the toy tree for Christmas drive is for the enrichment of the parrots who come through our doors. Teaching them to play and not rely solely on humans for all their entertainments is critical to having well adjusted birds as pets. This is true I am sure you would agree for all pets. Although, we humans can be most entertaining to these amazing feathered ones, the importance of self play can never be stressed enough.

With all that said, very happy to share that our drive was relatively successful. We were fortunate to order, with so many of you donating dollars, pounds of toys for the parrots and even the ones we call the termites have happy busy beaks. Remember we order wholesale so lots more toys for the dollars donated.

Again, thank you to all of you and please remember us all year long. Rescue is and always will be an ongoing commitment made possible with your continued generosity. Thank you for reading.

Our annual fill the Christmas Tree Toy Drive is coming to a close.

This year we are excited to say we have raised $675.00 from our  Facebook posting toward our annual “Fill the Christmas Tree Toy Drive”. Four very generous donors helped us get this far and we are so very grateful to them for doing so.

Now here is the reason for this post so late in the toy fund drive. All here at Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary are wondering if our supporters who receive  our web page feed, or simply follow our blog posts which sorry to say are few and far between, might just be able to help us reach our goal of  an additional 200.00 more so we can place our toy order ASAP……

We know this is last minute but as always we need all of your help to continue doing what we do here at M.A.R.S..

So if any of you can find it in your heart to donate at this wonderful time of the year  we can safely say you have helped  keep a whole lot of  parrots very quiet and happy for many months to come. At least three or four that is……

Donations can be made right here through our web page by simply clicking on the donate button.  And as I always say you will have made many beaks here at our  Florida based Parrot Rescue very very happy indeed.

Happy Holidays everyone and a very Merry Christmas to all.

Amazon Smile could put a smile on all of our beaks

imageThis year we hope you keep MARS in your thoughts as the holiday season approaches. Shopping at amazon smile using this direct link https://smile.amazon.com/ch/80-0161378 would surely help put a smile on all our beaks here at Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary our Florida based parrot rescue.

It has been a long and hard but very rewarding journey since M.A.R.S. Began in the Spring of 2008 and our journey is far from over. To continue on we need all of your help to do so. Amazon.smile.com is really an easy way to help out,  all you have to do is shop and spend,  they do all the rest. Although the percentage is very small it could add up if you pass the word and get everyone you know to use the site and specify Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary as their charity of choice. Thank you to all who do so.

Your end of the year charitable donations helps M.A.R.S. to help all of them in the New Year.

All here at Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary, ask that with all your hearts you remember us at this time of the year. When it so means the most to us, that your end of the year charitable donations, will allow M.A.R.S. to start the new year knowing that we will have the ability to continue helping the parrots and the people who need us, and count on us to be here for them.

A huge shout out to all our future new supporters, and a heartfelt thanks to those of you who are continuing to do so. Knowing, that you, have seen and understand the need for rescues such as ours to exist and maintain and hopefully grow, means our voice for all of them is being heard.

To all of you from all of us here at our exotic bird rescue simply known as M.A.R.S.. we wish to you and yours a very healthy and happy and wonderful New Year.
