Thank you for supporting Reigning Reptile Rescue! Your donations help us take in surrendered reptiles & amphibians and provide them with proper enclosures, husbandry, diet and vet care. Your donation helps us rescue & rehabilitate and is directly saving lives.

We are currently in the process of obtaining official 501(c)(3) nonprofit status. Our application has been submitted to the IRS (on 4/22/2025), and we’re now in the standard waiting period for approval, which can take another 2–3 months.

While we wait, we are temporarily accepting non-monetary donations through our

(We currently are in desperate need of new enclosures and thermostats!)

These Amazon donations are critical to the rescue — they allow us to immediately provide surrendered reptiles and amphibians with the proper housing, heat, lighting, and care they need to begin their rehabilitation journey.

Many animals arrive without any supplies, and your donation of a thermostat, enclosure, or UVB bulb can quite literally save a life.

Why Amazon Wish List?

It ensures that donations are exactly what we need — enclosures, thermostats, heat lamps, hides, supplements, and other essential care tools.

Items are shipped directly to us, safely and quickly.

It allows us to continue rescuing and rehabbing animals without delay — even while awaiting full nonprofit approval.

Are Amazon Donations Tax-Deductible?

Yes. Amazon donations made during this period will become tax-deductible retroactively once our 501(c)(3) status is finalized in the coming months. We are carefully tracking all donations, and you will receive a formal tax receipt for your records as soon as our nonprofit status is finalized.

Your Tax Deduction:

When donating through our Amazon wishlist, please email us with a receipt/screenshot of your amazon purchase. We will email you back a tax-deductible donation receipt once our 501(c)(3) is finalized.
