Fundraising
HappyTortoises is excited to announce an ambitious project to transform our facilities and elevate our care for tortoises, and we need your help to achieve this. We plan to create a state-of-the-art tortoise building, providing a safe and welcoming space for our existing tortoises, rescues, and even holiday guests.
This new facility will feature custom enclosures tailored to their needs, along with a garden to grow nutritious food. With your help, we can also produce educational videos to raise awareness about tortoise conservation and care.
Your contributions will ensure our tortoises receive the best possible heating, lighting, and food, and enable us to expand our rescue efforts and rehoming services.
Additionally, this project will allow us to participate in a conservation breeding program, playing a crucial role in preserving endangered tortoise species.
By supporting our fundraising campaign, you're not just helping us build a better home for these wonderful creatures—you're joining us in a mission to safeguard their future. Let's work together to create a sanctuary where every tortoise can thrive.
Ways you can help us:
If you have any items that are brand new or hardly used and in good condition, that would be useful for other tortoise owners and you are happy to donate to us to raise funds, please let us know by clicking the button to provide details of the item(s). We will provide PO box details for you to post to us or you can drop off to us in West Sussex. Thanks so much!
If you would like to purchase something from our Amazon wishlist to help us with the tortoise building renovations, enclosure and food area maintenance that would be fantastic
Your support doesn’t need to cost you a penny: you can really help us by subscribing to our YouTube channel, watching our videos, liking them, sharing with others, and adding comments. It really helps get our YouTube channel known and will then promote our videos to lots more people
We have an online shop where any profit is fed back into the business to keep things going. Any items you purchase for your tortoise will ultimately be helping raise funds for our projects.
If you know anyone—friends, family, classmates, colleagues, or neighbours—who has a tortoise (or would like to rehome a tortoise) and could use supplies or advice, let them know about HappyTortoises and share the link to our website. Help us spread the word and let's build a wonderful tortoise community together!
