How we're funded

Toronto Wildlife Centre is a registered charity supported primarily by your donations. The centre is operated by a small group of highly skilled paid staff supported by several hundred dedicated volunteers who work in all areas, from wildlife care to administration.

Toronto Wildlife Centre’s charitable registration number: 141146290RR0001

Our valued supporters

The following donors made gifts of $1,000 or more in 2025. Please note that some donations through third-party platforms such as Facebook Fundraisers may not be included (as donor information is not always shared with TWC), and gifts designated for our future wildlife centre will be recognized separately as those projects move forward.

Toronto Wildlife Centre wouldn’t exist without the community’s support. Thank you to our generous donors and sponsors.
