A Givealittle page set up to help the Whangārei Native Bird Recovery Centre has raised more than $14,000.
The fundraiser was set up by Northland internet and phone provider Uber Group Ltd in April after Northpower - which had been the centre's major sponsor for the past 12 years - withdrew its $14,000 annual funding.
During the eight weeks the page was open, $14,784 was donated by 274 people.
Robert Webb, who co-founded the centre more than 30 years ago with wife Robyn, said that was "fabulous".
"They jumped in straight away when we found out we lost the funding from Northpower. It's been really good to see the response that we're getting from the public," he said.
