As a non-profit organization, Amphibian Ark is almost entirely dependent on donations from individual and organizational donors and grants received from a variety of funding organizations. We are very grateful for the grant and funding support of the following organizations, individuals and other funders, which has allowed us to carry out a range of conservation workshops, provide Conservation Grants to small start-up amphibian rescue projects, and other activities.
