Thanks for the replies guys.
I definately will consider the Gabriel Foundation. My only worry is that the money wont go to the parrots. That why I didnt want to donate to rescues.
Yeah a LOT of fine tuning is in order. Thanks for the ideas and suggestions.
Its sad what the world has come to.

As The Gabriel Foundation has been mentioned several times, I would like to say that they are one of the best sanctuaries. I volunteer there twice a week. I know the people, I know the diet, I know the care these birds get. I also know that ALL money donated to TGF goes directly to the care of the birds. It may be for maintaining outdoor flights, medical, food, education, basically all monies recieved, stay within the foundation for the care of the birds. They currently have between 450 - 500 birds. Money is always needed and welcome, as they are a non-profit.
Also, I think it's important to mention that TGF does not breed birds. They rescue, they rehab, & they adopt out. Thier adoption process is long, and involved. They will not adopt out a bird to just anyone. Not all the birds are available for adoption due to medical or other issues, and these birds will have a forever home at the Foundation.
If you would like to read up on TGF thier website is:
The Gabriel Foundation®
Also here are some pics of some of the outdoor flights and birds there:
