WRI exists to promote wildlife rehabilitation, improve wildlife welfare, and conservation in Ireland.
Every donation helps protect Ireland’s wildlife — supporting education, collaboration, and the future Wildlife Teaching Hospital.
Your donation helps protect wildlife through education, collaboration, and professional training.
Every contribution — no matter the amount — supports WRI’s mission to improve wildlife welfare, strengthen national expertise, and advocate for stronger protection of Ireland’s wild animals. Donations allow us to deliver accredited courses, host conservation events, and expand awareness of wildlife issues nationwide.
Unlike many charities, WRI focuses on long-term change through education and collaboration. Your support helps us build the foundation for Ireland’s permanent Wildlife Teaching Hospital — a facility designed to train future professionals and improve wildlife outcomes for generations to come.
By donating, you become part of a nationwide effort to improve welfare, education, and understanding of wildlife care. Together, we’re building a more compassionate and informed Ireland — one that values and protects its wild animals.
Use our secure PayPal portal to make a one-time or monthly donation by credit or debit card.

Where there’s a Will there’s a way
Support Ireland’s Wildlife Teaching Hospital
Help us build a national centre for wildlife care, education, and compassion.
If you’re considering making a gift to an Irish animal charity, please think of Ireland’s wild animals. Wildlife Rehabilitation Ireland’s most ambitious project to date is the creation of the Wildlife Teaching Hospital and Nature Education Centre — a purpose-built facility dedicated to saving wildlife, supporting professionals, and inspiring the public.
This landmark centre will provide expert care for thousands of injured wild animals while promoting respect for nature and offering transformative learning and therapeutic experiences for visitors, students, and professionals alike.
We are inviting individuals, organisations, and businesses to be part of this legacy. This is a rare opportunity to make a lasting impact for wildlife — helping us establish Ireland’s first dedicated wildlife hospital and teaching hub for education, research, and rehabilitation.
How
Making a gift to charity is relatively simple. You need the name, address and the Registered Charity Number, and decide what gift(s) you wish to make.
You can make a gift of money, specific items, or include the charity as a residuary or alternative residuary beneficiary (a share in your assets)
Suggested wordings
for you to share with the solicitor who is preparing your Will:
A gift of a share of the estate (a residuary gift):
’I give to Wildlife Rehabilitation Ireland, 10 High Meadows, Duleek, Co Meath, Ireland, (Registered Charity Number 20142551, CHY No. 20991, Company Number 555237), the residue (or % share of the residue) of my estate absolutely and I direct that (i) the proceeds may be used for the general purposes of Wildlife Rehabilitation Ireland and (ii) a receipt signed by a person for the time being authorised by the Board of Wildlife Rehabilitation Ireland shall be a good and sufficient discharge to my executors.’
A fixed sum (a pecuniary gift):
‘I give to Wildlife Rehabilitation Ireland, 10 High Meadows, Duleek, Co Meath, Ireland, (Registered Charity Number 20142551, CHY No. 20991, Company Number 555237), the sum of €_______ and I direct that (i) the proceeds may be used for the general purposes of Wildlife Rehabilitation Ireland and (ii) a receipt signed by a person for the time being authorised by the Board of Wildlife Rehabilitation Ireland shall be a good and sufficient discharge to my executors.’
