Congratulations!

Thanks again
for your generous donations; we are now even further along
toward our goal of funding the new facility.
So far
our membership has raised $48,166, and our costs have risen
to $145,000 including furnishings. We will continue
our efforts to raise this amount and we know, with your
help, we can do it.
If you have not yet donated toward
this very worthwhile project or if you would like to increase your earlier contribution,
now is the time.

The
remaining funding needed is crucial to the construction of the
facility we will require to meet the present and future needs of
San Diego's wildlife community.
Thank you
for your support,
Michael G.
