Help make 2025 the Year of the Wolf

We invite you to be part of our biggest fundraiser of the year. With your help, we can make 2025 the best year yet for the wolves in our care and their counterparts in the wild.

Your contribution to HOWL FOR HOPE makes the following initiatives possible in 2025:

  • Habitats: Improving the lives of our wolves is paramount to our mission. With your support, we can continue to invest in habitat improvements, including much needed fencing repairs, new enrichment structures, build more multilevel platforms to give our older wolves easier access to enjoy the sun!
  • Facilities: We will continue improvements on our access road to make visiting easier for our guests and ease the strain on our volunteer and staff vehicles. Fire season is year-round in California now, and your support will help with clearing areas around the enclosures and structures to help mitigate our fire risk. .
  • Scholarships: We will launch Wolf Pup Academy, a new scholarship program to provide 100% coverage for low-income San Diego area students to tour our Conservation Facility. Students will experience hands-on STEM-based learning and have the amazing opportunity to see wolves up close, many for the first time, and hear about the important role of the wolf as an apex predator in the natural ecosystem.
  • Education: We will be able to engage with more guests through our Education Room at the CWC Visitor Center & Nature Store in downtown Julian, with a newly enhanced exhibit space that includes informative educational displays and interactive structures for young ones to explore and learn all about wolves!

As a U.S. facility with one of the largest populations of endangered Mexican gray wolves in human care, we have a great responsibility to the AZA SAFE to provide the best possible care for these wolves. Our dedicated team of staff and volunteers work 365 days a year to ensure our wolves remain ready for their call to return to the wild.
Making a tax-deductible donation is quick and easy and makes a world of difference for the wolves in our care and in the wild.
Help us make Howl for Hope a howling success.
THANK YOU!
