2024 WildCare Gala

In a night of remarkable philanthropy, the event raised nearly $600,000 to support WildCare’s critical work, including its Wildlife Hospital, advocacy efforts, and Terwilliger Nature Education programs.

Guests were treated to an unforgettable evening, which began with intimate encounters with WildCare’s beloved Wildlife Ambassador animals, giving attendees the chance to connect firsthand with the creatures they are helping to protect. A highlight of the evening was a thrilling live auction, where guests enthusiastically bid on exclusive experiences and items, pushing the total funds raised to new heights.

In addition to the auction, attendees enjoyed elegant custom portraits and indulged in a fabulous wine tasting featuring Thirty-Seven Wines. The evening’s elegant dinner was catered by McCalls, featuring a gourmet, plant-based meal that celebrated the region's exceptional produce and showcased sustainable dining at its finest.

The 2024 Gala was a testament to the community’s commitment to preserving the natural world, with funds raised directly supporting WildCare’s mission to provide medical care for injured and orphaned wildlife, advocate for wildlife protection, and educate the next generation of environmental stewards.

WildCare invites everyone to save the date for next year’s Gala, which will take place on September 6, 2025. As always, it promises to be an extraordinary event not to be missed.
