2024 Annual Report - Flipbook - Page 37
In May of this year, we began a very exci}ng
project–one that will be massively bene昀椀cial
for bats all across the globe! We o昀케cially
started construc}on on the Bat World Learning Center, where we will provide public educa}onal programs and rehabilita}on training
classes. During the summer months (our busiest rescue season), we will also host interns
from around the world. In choosing the site,
we were careful to avoid areas regularly used
by the wildlife on our land, such as deer
res}ng areas and raccoon trails.
We are so excited to have this opportunity to further our bat outreach for school
classrooms and to train more bat rescuers across the globe. While the outer shell
of the building is completed, we s}ll need funding to complete the inner framework, electrical, insula}on, plumbing, etc.
To help us fund this cri}cal project, TWO generous matching grants totaling
$135,000 have been o昀昀ered to us, which is a massive help to comple}ng the
classroom. We would like to extend a special thank you to our donors who have
helped fund this project thus far!
