Presenting headliner Sebas Guillem!

Sebas Guillem is a Costa Rican artist, born in 1996. He is a singer-songwriter and has dedicated himself to music for more than three years. He’s been practicing music from a young age – such as piano, guitar, and drums. Until now he has not had formal studies, his learning method has been merely empirical, but he spends hours every day polishing his art. His inspiration comes from his love for God and the beauty of nature. He is also characterized by wanting to bring positive messages and well-being to people. Many of his influences come from genres like Jazz, R&B, Gospel, and Soul. He is also influenced by acoustic/alternative music and the simplicity of a melody. Sebas’ musical career is focused not only on creating music but on using it as a platform for social good.

 

The Impact of Tunes for Toucans

The #PapayaisLife Operating Fund!

The Toucan Rescue Ranch spends roughly $30,000 each month to maintain operating costs. Did you know that we are 100% funded by charitable donations?! That’s right, we receive zero government funding! It is an expensive endeavor to feed and care for hundreds of rescued wildlife. This is easily the most important fund to support at TRR! Your donation will also help with veterinary services, medical equipment, enrichment, diets, expansions, enclosures, and so much more!

#Papayaislife FUNDS 900 POUNDS OF PAPAYA

The Toucan Rescue Ranch goes through roughly 900 pounds of papaya in just 1-week! This number does not include the bags of green beans, carrots, melon, fish, banana, plantain, berries, and a variety of other foods that we prepare for the many different diets at TRR.

#Papayaislife FUNDS THE WILDLIFE CLINIC

The Toucan Rescue Ranch’s clinic is an internationally recognized wildlife rescue facility with highly experienced veterinarians and medical professionals. This is an essential component of our rehabilitation center. Restocking various supplies such as syringes, lifesaving medicine, oxygen, bandage materials, sterilization tools, and much more is both necessary and costly – but by helping with the #PapayaisLife Operating Fund you are directly contributing to our clinic and animal emergencies!

GROWTH MEANS MORE…MUCH MORE

Our sanctuary and wildlife rescue center continues to expand, enabling us to rescue and release more rehabilitated wildlife. TRR accepts and cares for over roughly 500 animals annually. This fund is what keeps us operating and growing.
