As with any not for profit expenses are enormous!!  The supplies alone are mind-boggling! Veterinary care, spaying, neutering, worming, cleaning supplies, food, beds, enclosures, just to name a few items. It requires about $20,000 to $28,000 to run the rescue/rehabilitation a year!! 

The domestic/wild skunks and other Indiana orphaned wildlife (Fawns, Opossums, Raccoons, Squirrels, Foxs etc..) desperately need your help and support. People are killing wilds merely because they smell. THAT is their only defense and they only spray if they feel their life is in danger! People and pest control companies are drowning them in the traps, feeding them aspirin so they will SLOWLY bleed to death internally, poisoning them, leaving them in the traps until they starve to death. Just to name a few ways people are destroying them.

By donating you will be making a life saving impact on a skunk or orphaned wild baby, Julie helps most orphaned wildlife, she merely specializes in skunks. Any consideration in donating to the animals in need is greatly appreciated. Without YOU there is no way I can save as many animals as I do a year. It takes a village!

I am Julie McLaughlin founder/owner of Indiana Skunk Rescue. I am also a licensed wildlife rehabilitator in Hendricks county, Indiana. I help several species of Indiana wildlife, I merely specialize in skunks.  

There is no possible way I can do all this without you and your continued support. It takes a village! I am so happy that I have the village that I do! You all have been extremely supportive and have helped tremendously with donations for all the animals. I have no idea what I would have done without you all. 

I have been gathering items to prepare for next baby season. 

If you are planning on helping a Charity during the Holiday season or on Giving Tuesday in December, I would greatly appreciate you keeping Indiana Skunk Rescue in mind. I cannot help/save this many animals without you. I'm not even going to pretend that I can, because I know that I cannot without your support. The numbers would dwindle dramatically on what I could save. I do not get paid. Any funding I get comes from donations of kind people like yourself and out of my own pocket. 

I am a 501c3 not for profit. I carry seven different licenses and permits to be able to help/save the animals that I do. 

There are several different ways that you can help the animals. Below is a list of different ways. They are in no particular order. One is just as important as the other. 

Words could never express my gratitude if you choose to help and I know the babies feel the same way, because without you and your support they very well could die. They are too tiny to take care of themselves.
