Keys Reuse

New member joins

Monday, August 22nd, 2011

The Florida Keys Wild Bird Center (FKWBC) in Tavernier is the newest non-profit to join KeysReuse.com.

The group rescues, rehabilitates, and releases native and migratory wild birds that have been harmed or displaced. They also provide or locate a humane shelter for those birds that cannot be released and educate the public about the importance of coexisting with all wild bird species.

The group has submitted a long list of needs and I hope that some of you can donate them. The list includes:
