Giving Ideas



Some of you have asked how you can help the reserve.

Your knowledge, thoughts and suggestions are always welcome. You can add your comments in this blog by clicking on the "Comments" box at the bottom of any entry and that message is automatically forwarded to us.

Apple, carrot or hay bale donations are needed as well as any expertise you may have such as fence building, fundraising, etc.

You may wish to consider making a financial contribution:

Buck: For a donation of $100 or more, you become the official sponsor of one of our boys, whichever one you wish. You will receive a certificate of sponsorship along with a photo of the buck you have "adopted". We can also arrange a visit to meet your buck in person and send you updates and photos via email of how your dear deer is doing. A grandmother has sponsored a buck for her grand-daughter. We were able to introduce him to the child and include a photo of their meeting on the certificate of sponsorship. While quantities last, such a gift also includes a hat, t-shirt or pen. This makes for an unusual and welcome gift on birthdays, Christmas, anniversaries or any special day.

Spiker: For a donation of $50, you become an official friend and receive a visit to the reserve to meet your buck as well as regular email updates and photos.

Fawn: Any donation will give your family an invitation to visit the reserve by appointment and meet each of our bucks.


Here's some examples of what your dollars could provide:

$156 will feed each buck for one year
$100 will purchase 10 bags of corn, 50 bales of hay, 30 feet of fencing, one visit from the vet
$50 will provide shelter maintenance for six months
$45 will provide vitamin and mineral supplement lick for one year
$15 will feed each buck for one month with a good diet of hay, corn, apples and carrots
