Please Help Fill Our Wish List
A great deal of equipment is needed for the day to day running of the ACRES Wildlife Rescue Centre (AWRC) as well as for the ACRES office and our ongoing campaigns.
If we can get these items donated (second-hand in good condition is fine), it means that more of the funds raised can go directly to the animals.
If you can spare any of the following item/s, please contact us at info@acres.org.sg or call us at +65 68929821. As we have limited manpower, it would be great if you could drop off the items at the AWRC. If not, we can arrange to collect them from you.
On behalf of the animals, thank you!
