WRC FOSTERS A CULTURE OF HOPE, COMPASSION AND KINDNESS. WE PREPARE THE SOIL FOR SEEMINGLY SMALL, OFTEN INDIVIDUAL, ACTS OF COMPASSION TO TAKE ROOT. NEARLY ALL OF US HAVE BEEN TOUCHED IN SOME WAY BY THE ANIMALS WITH WHICH WE SHARE OUR WORLD, ESPECIALLY WHEN WE WITNESS INJURED AND ORPHANED ANIMALS. WRC PROVIDES AN OUTLET FOR PEOPLE TO ACT ON THEIR INSTINCTS TO ASSIST AND MODEL COMPASSION FOR NEXT GENERATIONS.
