Contact A Place Called Hope
A Place Called Hope is a Rehabilitation and Education Center for Birds of Prey. Our goal is to heal injured, orphaned, or ill birds and return them to the wild where they belong. Federal permits allow us to house and work with the birds that can not be returned to their natural world provided we share them through educational presentations. These particular birds have become ambassadors and have helped us to educate the public. They also teach all of us how to co-exist more peacefully with the wildlife in our very own backyards.
A Place Called Hope is a 501 c 3 non profit organization run entirely by volunteers along with donations of time, supplies and money from our supporters. If you would like to learn more about how you can help, please send us an email. If you would like to make a financial contribution please use our donations tab. Thank you for your continued support. A little goes a long way.
A PLACE CALLED HOPE is RELOCATING!
On The Move September, 2012
PROJECTS
Attention Scouts! We will have endless projects in clearing and making trails on this new property! We will need help immediately to get this place in order for the Birds and for the public the birds attract. Once trails are in place, we will need to maintain them as well. Talk to Pack Leaders and suggest projects of this nature. There is so much to do! and so much to enjoy!
EXPANSION
Since 2007 A Place Called Hope has grown at a steady pace. The call for our unique services keeps us busy all over the state. Our current location has served us well, but in order for us to continue to meet our demands and realize our dreams for the future, we must relocate. WE NEED YOUR HELP! The Birds need your assistance. All donations are 100% tax deductible.
NEW LOCATION
We have found the ideal property in Killingworth nestled away on 9.1 acres. The perfect setting for our new and improved Facility as well as additional Aviaries including one suitable for Bald Eagles. This parcel is private and a river runs through it! The birds will be in their glory. But most importantly, there is room to grow. Consider being a part of this exciting process by making a tax deductible donation.
WHAT'S INVOLVED
In order for us to relocate, we must build one aviary at a time and move birds by individual species. We will be salvaging as much material as possible, but will be building larger aviaries and will need new materials to do so. The expense involved in this move will be considerable. A PLACE CALLED HOPE needs your support now! Please consider making your end of the year tax deductible donation and help us to build a new FUTURE. The Birds appreciate your help.
THE FUTURE UNFOLDS
A PLACE CALLED HOPE envisions a bright FUTURE. We have plans for more aviaries, handicap accessibility, a Rehabilitation Building, trails, and eventually an Education Center where indoor programming will take place along with seminars and opportunities for learning about Connecticut's native wildlife. Join us in this vision... go to www.aplacecalledhoperaptors.com and click on the Donate tab or send us a tax deductible donation to APCH 254 Roast Meat Hill Road Killingworth, CT 06419 Thank You for Your Continued Support.

OUR SINCERE APPRECIATION
