Mission Statement
Foster Parrots is dedicated to the rescue and protection of unwanted and abused captive parrots and other displaced exotic animals
About This Cause
Foster Parrots, Ltd. is a non-profit organization dedicated to the rescue and protection of unwanted and abused companion parrots and other displaced exotic animals. Working on many levels to bring critical services to birds and animals in transition, we offer life-long sanctuary care for unadoptable parrots and other exotics at our permanent care sanctuary facility, The New England Exotic Wildlife Sanctuary, and provide adoption services for well-socialized parrots who desire human companionship. Our educational initiatives seek to connect children and adults alike to animal and environmental issues, to nurture empathy, and to inspire a sense of personal responsibility and accountability toward the care of our earth and our animals. A staunch advocate for parrots as wild animals, Foster Parrots’ conservation work in Central and South America keeps parrots and other animals safe in their natural habitat, and also embodies our ultimate message: parrots and all wild animals should be free. Founded in 1989 and formally incorporated in 1999, Foster Parrots, Ltd. is the largest avian rescue organization in the northeast. We are accredited by The Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries and are a founding member of the country’s leading avian advocacy and information organization, The Avian Welfare Coalition. One of the most widely recognized and reputable parrot rescue organizations in the country, Foster Parrots has worked collaboratively with organizations like The Jane Goodall Institute, Born Free USA and The World Society for the Protection of Animals in our quest to bring assistance to captive parrots who have long suffered the consequences of pet trade exploitation and public misinformation. In 2007 Foster Parrots established the New England Exotic Wildlife Sanctuary on 15 acres of rural land in Hope Valley, Rhode Island. With 8 additional acres acquired in 2013, the facility now encompasses 23 acres and serves as the permanent sanctuary arm of the organization and the center for our regional humane education initiatives, student internships, and adoption program. Over 400 parrots representing more than 50 different avian species currently reside at the sanctuary.
