Hawai'i Wildlife Center

Linda Elliot

Show Description:
At Kapa‘au, North Kohala, dedicated island conservationists are building Hawai‘i’s first wildlife recovery center. It will be a place of healing and learning. The Hawai‘i Wildlife Center (HWC), a 501(c)(3) conservation organization, will consist of three integrated facilities: a wildlife care and response unit, an interpretive and outreach courtyard, and an education pavilion. The Center will operate 7 days per week year-round.

For Hawai‘i’s vulnerable, too often endangered native species, HWC will perform hands-on rescue and recovery services for sick and injured wildlife and rapid response to oil spill and contaminant incidents. HWC will serve all Hawaiian Islands, including the Northwestern Islands extending to Midway and Kure atolls.

Incorporated in 2006, HWC received a $500,000 grant-in-aid from the legislature this year. As we now kick off our capital campaign for the balance of needed construction funds, we ask you to give generously to make HWC a reality.

Your tax deductible charitable contribution will support treatment, research, training, science education, cultural programs and wildlife recovery work undertaken in cooperation with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, the State of Hawai‘i Division of Forestry and Wildlife, and many other environmental organizations.

08/31 - Catherine Bradford, HOST
Radio Worth Waiting For!

 Hello everyone! Well, as much as I had wanted to begin broadcasting The Catherine Bradford Show as soon as July 16th on LA Talk Radio, it appears that we are all going to have to wait for that DEBUT SHOW. Over this past week circumstances (family matters) have created the need for me to postpone my opening show from airing, and so, we will all have to wait. I am hoping to have made it to the other side of these events within a short period of time, but until then, I am asking for your patience.  In the meantime, while taking this short and temporary hiatus from being on air live, I want to invite you to keep c...
