The Herps Alive Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to saving, rehabilitating and caring for unwanted, neglected and abused reptiles and amphibians, and to finding new homes for them when possible, with an emphasis on educating the public. Licensed and insured, the Interactive Experience offers hands-on displays, lectures, roving programs and custom-designed residencies throughout t

he country. We have appeared on nearly 300 college campuses in 36 states and at over 500 other venues, performing thousands of programs for tens of thousands of people since we started as a high school project in 1976. Pricing varies with the type and location of program, starting at $200.

Keith here. I hate to say this, but May donations were just $714.88, whereas they are normally $1500-2500. I know the cost of living is up, but if you are in a position to help, please do. Go to herpsalive.org, click on the Support Our Mission page. There is a donate button there for credit cards. We also have Venmo (herps-aliive) and CashApp ($herpsalive). You can also mail a check directly to the facility. Now that 2nd floor construction is really moving along, we have big plans (not ready to announce) for the 2nd floor but we will probably need to raise $15-20,000. Every dollar helps. Thank you.

Adoptables can be viewed on our FB under albumbs (We are working through technical difficulties having them appear on the website)
