This Mother’s Day, honor the women who lift us up by supporting the mothers who soar. As bird migration reaches its peak in the Northeast each May, just in time for Mother’s Day, the Catherine Violet Hubbard Animal Sanctuary is calling on the community to help provide nourishment and protection for Connecticut’s winged mothers.

As a certified wildlife habitat, the sanctuary is committed to supporting both migrating and native birds with the essential resources they need—high-quality seeds, safe shelter, and nesting materials. These supports are critical as birds return to breed and raise their young.

This year, the sanctuary hopes to raise $2,500 to sustain and expand efforts during this crucial time of migration and renewal.
