Our mission in the short term is to raise additional funds that will go to food and shelter for the wildlife. The Bluebirds need more places to nest. The Wood Ducks could use shelters. Food is needed in increasing quantities.

Our mission in the long term would be to have enough funds to create a non-profit entity that then can acquire this land and adjoining parcels if available and keep the HickoryOaks WildLife Refuge (HWR) in perpetuity.

Although it would be immediately more profitable for the owners to develop and sell this land, our Goal is to preserve it as it is. Land like this is hard to find and something's are more important than money.

Your donations of any amount will help. You can rest assured that the WildLife will have a home and shelter so they to can survive. Earth would be a terrible place without them.

For those in South East Wisconsin and North East Illinois that may be willing to help in the physical sense, please let us know.

Thank you.
