Notable Improvements I've Made:

Helping to create a lasting memorial site for all of the cats we have been fortunate enough to rescue and care for here at BCR. By doing this, we have been able to share with the world what it is like to be compassionate yet understand the bigger picture - a comfortable life in captivity will never take the place of the natural life in the wild they each deserved.

Sponsoring the cage construction that allowed Adonnis and Bagheera to live out their lives together.

Initiating the S.A.V.E. Award and providing photos of all on site activities for the website and newsletters. I also secured the gift wrapping privilege with Borders.

What Other Big Cat Rescuers Say About Me: "Julie's devotion to the cats could be summed up in just one incident. After breaking her leg she couldn't safely clean lion and tiger cages, so she painted the two story intern house, perilously perched on a ladder. Nothing keeps her from helping the cats!" Carole Baskin, Founder of Big Cat Rescue

Florida law requires that all charities soliciting donations disclose their registration number and the percentage of your donation that goes to the cause and the amount that goes to the solicitor.
