Oasis Wish List --- January 2008

The Oasis Sanctuary always needs the following:

Volunteers:

Our most important commodity is YOU.

We need Volunteers in every area..from on-site help with caretaking to maintenance, construction, electrical, welding or plumbing work. Off-site we can use office help (in Phoenix.)

Contact Charlotte in our Business Office 602-863-1543 to see how you can help with shows, mailings, or working on important committees. If you wish to help on or off-site and you are in Tucson or elsewhere in Southern Arizona, contact Sybil at 520-212-4737.

Items used daily for the birds (that we always can use):

Toys, particularly large toys for the big, more destructive birds.

Treats such as millet spray; roasted in-the-shell unsalted peanuts or pistachios; other in-the-shell human grade nuts, in particular almonds and walnuts. Note: we are dealing with very large numbers of birds so a minimum 5 pound bag or larger is recommended for cost efficiency.

Newspapers for use in cage cleaning. If you are coming to visit and are driving, a collection of newspaper is always very much appreciated.

Larger Items:

Hard surface steamer/cleaner for cleaning floors of bird buildings

Electric golf-cart (two-seater for daily feeding or a four-seater for tours)

Riding lawn mower . with 72 acres, our push mower makes for slow going!!

Construction items:

Tuff-Shed type building for storage and/or a workshop

Construction trailer for use as another small bird building

Manufactured or mobile home, single or doublewide, for employee and/or guest housing

Small backhoe for digging larger areas such as aviary foundations.

T-posts . 6-8 foot tall

Fencing materials, wood or wire

Cage building materials; weld wire, hardware cloth, roofing, iron

Metal buildings for additional bird buildings or storage

Please keep in mind: if your bird or business needs it, The Oasis Sanctuary can use it!
