Wendy holds artwork created by one of her parrots. |
The organizer behind this charity was Wendy Huntbatch who died a few days ago from cancer. I met her several years ago when we offered up our ocean view condo as part of a fundraising promotion. Unfortunately, the logistics of tickets sales and distribution were too difficult to overcome and it didn't happen.
However, I've been a frequent visitor to the refuge.
What will happen with the refuge is unknown. Although there is a board of directors that can carry on operations, Wendy was the driving force behind fundraising. In this photo, she's holding up one of her fundraising ideas... paintings done by the parrots of the refuge. According to one staff member who works there, the cockatoos are the most creative painters of the bunch.
