Kids across the mountains of Western North Carolina are doing everything they can in support of the animals at the WNC Nature Center.
Friends of the WNC Nature Center announced last month that they were raising money to support repairs to Brandon’s Otter Falls, the habitat of river otters Obi-Wan and Olive. Development Director Kate Frost says“The response was tremendous. And we received some really special notes with the donations that came in. Two-dollar bills from the Tooth Fairy, allowances that had been matched by parents, and colorful pictures were given by kids to support the otters.” Thanks to the efforts of these amazing kids the fundraising goal was met, and repairs should begin on the otter habitat this fall. Obi and Olive will soon be able to enjoy their newly fixed pool!
We spoke with 8-year-old Alma who is one of those amazing kids! Thank you Alma!
