Mission: River's Wish Animal Sanctuary saves lives through rescue, education and advocacy. By treating animals as individuals and expressing both their wonder and plight through art, we foster empathy and understanding that leads to compassionate life choices.

Programs: We offer Sanctuary Based Education through Art and Animal workshops, Garden to Table workshops, Compassion For Animals and Compassionate Living workshops. We are House Rabbit Society educators with the House Rabbit Society. River's Wish is home to equines, bovines, sheep, goats, pigs, rabbits, dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, geese and ducks. Located on 65 acres adjacent to Riverside State Park. River's Wish has been involved in rescue since 1994 and became incorporated as a 501c3 organization in 2004.
