Thursday 9th November

Our giving day is now closed for 2023!

Thank you so much for donating to WIRES 2023 Giving Day. Our critical work for wildlife is ongoing and your donations are always very gratefully received. Please visit www.wires.org.au for more ways to support WIRES.

Australia’s preparing for a long, hot summer and our 24/7 Rescue Line is already receiving hundreds of distressed calls every day, as vulnerable native animals fall victim to extreme heat, lack of rain and deadly bushfires.   

We’re doing everything we can to reach the native animals who need our help.

The WIRES Giving Day was a unique chance for our community to help us accelerate and sustain our dedicated Wildlife Emergency Response – across Australia – and throughout the dangerous fire season ahead. 

The gifts received will help us keep our Wildlife Rescue Office open 24/7, will resource our growing fleet of Wildlife Ambulances with expert Emergency Responders and will help us distribute life-saving Disaster Relief to wildlife carers across Australia. 

We are immensely grateful to our Matched Giving Partners - Woolworths & The Body Shop - and our two very generous donors who pledged match-giving dollars on the day in support of Australian wildlife. We extend our gratitude to all our wildlife-loving community on behalf of our native animals that are sick, injured or orphaned, and who need our urgent care. Thank you.

Together we can create a wilder future.
