Jacqueline's Going Away & Engagement Gift

Donation protected
Big life changes have been happening for our Jacqueline in the last few months!

If you haven't yet heard, she got engaged to Sam (also a WildCare Hospital staff member)! This February, they are moving to New Zealand together, (where he is attending Massey School of Veterinary Science), which obviously means that she will be leaving WildCare.

Jacqueline has been a WildCare Hospital Staff member since 2016, but has been coming to WildCare since she was a child attending summer camps. From her dedication to fostering the tiniest of baby mice, to performing late night raptor reunites after ten hours shifts, to running the Hungry Owl Project, she is irreplaceable. We are so happy for her and Sam as they start their new lives together, but heartbroken to lose her.

Because Jacqueline will be moving overseas, actual going away and/or engagement gifts aren't realistic, so we thought the next best thing that all newlyweds/people moving to other countries need is money! Hence this gofundme.

If you would like to contribute to this gift, please feel free, and be sure to leave a note.

For those of you who are WildCare Staff or Volunteers; there will be a going away lunch on January 23 (check your emails for details).

There is no way we could ever find a gift that reflects the depths of our gratitude for Jacqueline for all she has done for WildCare and quite literally thousands of animals over the last 8 years, or for how much she means to us. But we hope this will help as she spreads her wings and leaves our nest!
