COVID support for Reptile Rainforest
Donation protected
Reptile Rainforest is typically a break-even operation, and my animals rely on this money for basic necessities such as food, environmental needs, and veterinary care.
My small, education based reptile breeding and show business of 25 years has fallen through the cracks.
The COVID-19 situation we are all struggling through has obliterated approximately 50% of my income for the year, with no government financial support to replace that particular loss from cancelled events.
My insurance company continues to charge liability insurance (despite not being able to legally operate my business for 4 months), bills don’t stop for anyone and most importantly - my animals must eat.
I have dedicated my life to educating people about reptiles, but without your help, I fear Reptile Rainforest will not survive the slow winter season.
I estimate a loss of approximately $15000, but I really just want to make it through the slow season and hopefully be able to get back to doing the work that I feel is so important.
Your support would mean the world to me, and any contribution is greatly appreciated.
