Help MAARS Take Flight!

MAARS needs your help to create a new sanctuary that provides space for flight. Your support is vital for giving the birds an environment that can better meet their unique needs than the current location.


Our History

Since  the founding of MAARS in July 1999, almost 1500 unwanted  parrots have  come through our doors. More than 1400 birds have been successfully placed into permanent homes. We’ve consistently grown since then, all thanks to the helping hands of this amazing community!

Our Mission

MAARS’ core function is to care for our flock at our facility, The Landing. Our primary mission is to educate the public, people who already live with parrots, and the veterinary community about the issues that face captive parrots.

Sanctuaries stay full because the need continues to exceed the space available. The solution isn't more sanctuaries; it's reducing the number of parrots who need them. That starts through education, responsible choices, and supporting adoption. Thank you for following this series. If you'd like to help us continue providing lifelong care for parrots in need, click the link in our bio to support MAARS. Every donation helps provide food, enrichment, veterinary care, and safe sanctuary for birds who depend on us.

Finding a home for a parrot isn't simple; it's a decades-long commitment that few people are prepared for. That's why so many birds wait years for the right home. Come back tomorrow for the final part, where we connect all the pieces. #MAARS #Parrots #Sanctuary #Cockatoos #Nonprofit ... See MoreSee Less

The rescue system stays full because new parrots continue entering the companion animal trade while thousands already need homes. The cycle never truly stops. Join us tomorrow for Part 3 to learn why parrots aren't like dogs and cats when it comes to adoption. #MAARS #Parrots #Sanctuary #Cockatoos #Nonprofit ... See MoreSee Less
