Wildlife Rescue League is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in Northern Virginia whose mission is to support the rehabilitation and release of sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife and, through education, to foster the appreciation of our wild neighbors. WRL operates a wildlife helpline in Northern Virginia and surrounding areas and provides advice and referrals to permitted wildlife rehabilitators to get animals the help they need for a second chance at life. WRL also educates the public about native wildlife and peaceful coexistence; thereby minimizing the need for rehabilitation efforts. We provide brochures, educational material, classes and educational programs upon request. If you find an animal in need of assistance, call WRL's Wildlife Helpline at (703) 440-0800 for advice.

Green America's mission is to harness economic power—the strength of consumers, investors, businesses, and the marketplace—to create a socially just and environmentally sustainable society. We work for a world where all people have enough, where all communities are healthy and safe, and where the bounty of the Earth is preserved for all the generations to come. We work on issues of social justice and environmental responsibility. We see these issues as completely linked in the quest for a sustainable world - it's what we mean when we say "green." We focus on economic strategies - economic action to solve social and environmental problems. We mobilize people in their economic roles - as consumers, investors, workers, and business leaders. We empower people to take personal and collective action. We work to stop abusive practices and to create healthy, just and sustainable practices.

FHFH feeds the hungry by transforming donated deer, elk and livestock into nutritious meat for food banks and feeding ministries. Nutritious red meat is the most-needed item at food banks and feeding ministries nationwide. FHFH pays to have deer and other big-game donated by hunters processed, packaged and frozen by approved, participating meat cutters. The meat, which is high in protein and low in fat, is distributed free of charge to the food banks and feeding ministries that serve the poor nationwide. FHFH exists to serve the Lord Jesus Christ by feeding the hungry. In the Bible, Isaiah the prophet and Jesus himself lift up feeding the hungry as one of the traits of those who have given their hearts to the Lord.

Rikki's Refuge is an independent, all species, no-kill sanctuary located on over 330 acres of land in Orange, Virginia.

From the very beginning, Rikki's Refuge has accepted animals into the sanctuary without discriminating against age, health condition, breed, adoptability, or any of the other labels that often warrant a death sentence. All are welcome to live a comfortable life at the refuge.

GLWR was founded in Michigan in May of 2005 by five ­­­individuals with a single common bond – a love of the Weimaraner dog. We understood the special needs of the breed and had a desire to help those dogs that found themselves lost, abandoned, neglected or mistreated and through no fault of their own were without a family and a loving home. GLWR was founded with the premise and intent of assisting Weimaraners in need of re-homing assistance.

Founded in 1989, RWRC has grown to be the largest rehabilitation and education center of its kind in Texas serving over 100 counties. In 1999, through a collaborative effort between the EPA and RWRC, a closed 260-acre landfill was reclaimed and the wetland habitat restored. As a result, Rogers Wildlife relocated its rehabilitation and education center to Hutchins, TX and now serves as a home to thousands of birds each year. Our overall goal of the educational program is to foster the link between wildlife habitat, schools and community organizations.
