The Cape Fear Parrot Sanctuary, a non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating parrots, is celebrating a significant milestone – its fifth anniversary. Established in October 2013, the sanctuary began as a modest backyard bird barn and has since transformed into a full-scale sanctuary. Under the guidance of founder Ces Erdman, the sanctuary has provided refuge to hundreds of birds that have faced abuse, neglect, or abandonment.

Over the last five years, the sanctuary has focused on creating a natural and nurturing environment for these birds. They have built several large aviaries, allowing the birds to live in flocks, mirroring their natural social structures. The sanctuary ensures they receive a nutritious diet and necessary medical care.

Looking ahead, Erdman has outlined an ambitious ten-year plan to enhance the sanctuary’s capabilities further. Key initiatives include purchasing the five-acre land on which the sanctuary is situated, enhancing security with a new fence, installing a septic system and well, upgrading the on-site veterinary clinic, and constructing additional facilities like an on-site restroom, housing for a caretaker, an office, and expanding educational and outreach programs.

The immediate goal is to secure the land, deemed essential for the sanctuary’s ongoing mission and growth. The sanctuary faces a deadline of April 15, 2019, to raise $25,000 for this purpose.

Supporters interested in contributing to the cause can donate via PayPal or by mailing a check to the sanctuary. As a 501c3 non-profit organization, all donations are tax-deductible. Erdman expresses gratitude to all who have supported the sanctuary so far and invites more to join in celebrating this milestone by helping them achieve their future goals.
