Embracing with love the many wings
whose lives we transform.
Under My Wing Avian Refuge exist to provide captive birds with individualized care, the companionship of a flock, and the opportunity to live out their lives in a safe haven dedicated to their well-being and educating the public of the complex needs of parrots in captivity and the crisis facing them.
The Sanctuary is currently home to approx. 100 captive abandoned parrots, retired from rescued from our local animal enforcement organizations many of whom suffer long-term health and behavioral issues.
We employ a fully integrated team of veterinarians and caregivers who provide high-quality care by using positive reinforcement and meet the needs of each bird in our care.
The parrot’s habitations are not open to the public, but by appointment and educational purposed only do we allow both public and private schools to visit.
Under My Wing Avian Refuge is a nonprofit, tax-exempt charitable organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law.

UNDER MY WING FREE FLIGHT & OPEN CAGE ENVIRONMENT FOR EXOTIC BIRDS ESTABLISHED IN 2007
Our Devotion and Commitment are Continually Changing Parrots Lives
We have implemented taking precautions, which are most important to the public during this time and stage of COVID-19 outbreak. In order to doing everything possible to minimize and help our community to minimize the spread of coronavirus, programs and events….CANCELLED till further notice!
These programs and events were bread and butter to help financially sustain the sanctuary operations.
Our emergency fund now depleted.
During this period of the coronavirus pandemic, our organization is in much need of your immediate support. We need to order food and other essential items to ensure the birds health and safety until our State and Country becomes healthy again.
Due to high demand of bird food orders, our distributor cannot secure regular shipments of food to come in a timely fashion over the pandemic of COVID-19 outbreak. In order to make sure we have the food in house and be able to feed the birds, we need to place this order immediately.
We have other items also to purchase in bulk such as cleaning and disinfecting supplies. Any amount you can possibly contribute to this is greatly appreciated.
We have addressed our need to the State of NJ as well as to the Government because we feel it is imperative for the Government an our State to make sure that people, be protected, but also imperative to address the sheltered animals in need.
Just as humans are more likely to succumb to disease when we are stressed, weakened or wounded, these same factors also suppress the immune systems in animals, leaving them extremely vulnerable to catching new infections. Please help us keep our birds healthy
We hope and pray we will not need any further funding for Veterinary care, being careful and maintaining the birds diets should prevent medical needs.
We pray you remain healthy and safe.
Thank you for all you can do to help.
