Appalachian Wildlife Refuge is looking for wildlife supporters who enjoy arts and crafts!  Rehabilitating orphans at the facility need more cozy pouches to curl up in.  Fleece and flannel pouches are especially helpful to orphaned opossum babies missing the comfort of their mothers’ pouches, though flying squirrels also enjoy them!

Click below for guides on how to make the kinds of pouches we’re looking for and where to send them to support wildlife in need!

After you've finished making pouches according to the guides above, please send them to:

If you’re looking for more ways to support injured and orphaned opossums, flying squirrels, and others,
​pair your pouch with a donation! You can also give online or give a gift to the wild ones from the wishlist!

​Thank you for helping AWR take the best possible care of wildlife in recovery at the facility!
