The gift of giving:Once the 501(c)(3) forms are filed with the IRS. Donations will then be a tax deduction.I am in hope some ligitimate questions will be answered to move this  process forward.The budget plan has been sent in.

Still working on the nonprofit (finished stage II) -moving forward...Hoping everything will go fairly quick,and that this will help our efforts greatly!! The Foundation Group has answerd some questions.We will move forward in 2009.  

 

Second Chance Wildlife, Inc. is in hope to receive monetary donations to keep us running.To accomplish our goals;now and into the future! But I would rather be poor,and use whatever money we have worked hard for! while also gaining more hopeful funding from those who believe in our efforts! Than receive funding/money from those who destort the truth. If you support our efforts and would like to donate, please do so, by clicking on the donate button below.
