Conservation of parrots in the wild is an incredibly important undertaking, especially with many parrots on the critically endangered list. The World Parrot Trust is the No.1 charity that is helping these beautiful creatures all over the globe - from New Zealand to Indonesia to Central America. WPT is a truly global charity but at the same time a very light-weight organisation. As a donor I am constantly delighted by the work of the World Parrot Trust - keep it up guys!

This is a SOLID Organization that I have been a member of for many years. Although my charitable donations go to Parrot/Bird Sanctuaries, I also have a special place in my heart for the World Parrot Trust. They have had a tremendous impact with minimal resources

I chose a focus on WPT for several reasons. First, they have a holistic approach to parrot conservation , including habitat and economics. Second, they work with local people, volunteer or paid, to enable them to take over responsibility for their own conservation efforts. Third, they show amazing patience, dedication and ability to find creative ways to deal with problems. The staff I've met in webinars have been totally awesome; I can't climb trees now, but they certainly can!

I have a precious 34-year-old African Grey parrot who I love. Several years ago, I embarked on a Uganda ecotour to see African Grey parrots in the wild. It is there that I met World Parrot Trust’s Rowan Martin and witnessed, first-hand, his (and WPT’s) dedication and commitment to protecting and preserving our African Grey parrots – and their effectiveness! Since then, WPT has been one of my predominant charities as it is imperative that we save our precious parrots’ futures, and WPT will accomplish that goal with our support.

This awesome organization is doing a great job of helping to conserve parrots in the wild not only by fighting to disrupt the black market trade but by educating locals to cherish and protect their indigenous birds. They also support important research into parrot behavior and breeding and help return poached parrots to the wild. I am proud to be a longtime supporter of the World Parrot Trust.
