Thank you all so much for your support.  We are ready to receive any burn patients.  So far, we have received nine patients.  We are still expecting to see patients arrive up to six weeks past the fire.  Our other concern is the rain will wash the ammonium phosphate and toxic ash from the Pacific Palisades Fire into the ocean and sicken our seabirds.  We are getting ready for that possibility now.  The toxic ash is a mix of incinerated cars, electronics, batteries, building materials, paints, furniture, and other household items. It contains pesticides, asbestos, plastic, and lead.  We have found that the ammonium phosphate contaminates birds feathers compromising their waterproofing.  

We are ready because of your support.
Our mission is to educate the public about human impact on the environment and mitigate that impact through care and rehabilitation of native wildlife. WWCC is open 365 days a year.
