The Arcturos wildlife protection organization, which runs a sanctuary for brown bears in northern Greece, has asked the public for financial support so that it can continue its operation, due to a sharp drop in revenues as the coronavirus lockdown has stopped visits to the organization’s facilities, ANA reports.
According to an Arcturos announcement on Friday, its revenues derive exclusively from visits to the environmental centers, the sales of its products and on subscriptions. Now that visits to Nymfeo shelter are not allowed, a significant part of this revenue stream has dried up and in the coming months, Arcturos will not have the funds to care for the wildlife and other animals at the shelter.
Those interested in supporting the mission of the organization can become members, make a donation or adopt an animal online at https://www.arcturos.gr/gr/summeteho/donation, https://www.arcturos.gr/gr/summeteho/adoption https://www.arcturos.gr/gr/summeteho/membership or can contact Arcturos at the phone number 2386041500.
