The Oasis Sanctuary

11/27/2025

This Thanksgiving, our hearts at The Oasis Sanctuary overflow with gratitude for you. Because of your kindness and generosity, more than 800 parrots—each with their own story, spirit, and second chance—are safe, cherished, and loved.

Your support makes every day here a little brighter. It means full bowls, warm and comfortable housing, skilled care, and the promise of a safe home for birds who needed a place to land. It means healing, comfort, and the joy of watching once-wary parrots rediscover trust.

Thank you for being part of this compassionate community. Thank you for believing in their futures. And thank you for standing with us—not just during the holidays, but all year round.

From all of us at The Oasis Sanctuary, feathered, furry and humans alike, we wish you a joyful, peaceful, and love-filled Thanksgiving.

Parrot Crisis Summit, which was presented online on September 19, 2025 with a focus on various ways to take action to help parrots, and people, globally. Over 100 people attended this online event that featured speakers and facilitators from the conservation, education, advocacy, and rescue/sanctuary sectors.

There were opportunities for attendees to gather in small breakout rooms to discuss many of the issues featured during the Summit and the conversations were lively and informative. New connections were made and old ones renewed!

In the afternoon, the focus shifted to assisting existing organizations with capacity building, with one session for rescue/sanctuary groups and another for conservation organizations. A third session was offered for people seeking careers in any of the sectors working to help wild and captive parrots, such as veterinary medicine, law, advocacy, and others.

If you are interested in learning more about the IAPP and perhaps getting involved, there will be a general online meeting at noon EST on Wednesday, December 3, 2025. Sign up for the email list on the home page of the IAPP website (https://www.allianceforparrots.org/) to learn more about the IAPP and to stay informed about and register for this and other events.

🤩 WOW!! What an AMAZING Volunteer Day we had on Saturday! 😎

Because of this hard-working crew, so much meaningful work was accomplished, and our flock is better for it. Their time, energy, and positive attitude made a real difference.
❄️Our focus was winterization, putting up the panels to make the aviaries warm and comfortable for the birds with the upcoming cooler weather.
The Panel team took on the challenge and wrangled the very large panels and secured them to the aviary frames.
🤗The Raking Team beautified the aviaries and pole barn; they look great! A dusty job for sure.
🍔The Kitchen team prepped a delicious BBQ lunch for all of us and cleaned up.

We were in awe at the end of the day, reflecting on everything that was done. What a tremendous help. 🥰🥹
⭐ THANK YOU, VOLUNTEERS, ⭐YOU'RE SO APPRECIATED! ⭐
