To protect and prevent the suffering of parrots in captivity by providing rescue and sanctuary to abused, neglected and unwanted companion parrots. We provide all of our residents with a nutritious, mostly organic diet, certified avian veterinary care, and natural forms of enrichment.  The Icarus Foundation, Inc. is available to the public to promote responsible ownership and proper parrot care through education and owner support.  

To cultivate awareness, respect, and appreciation for parrots so that we will see the day when we have significantly made an impact on the cycle of unwanted parrots.

To see the day when cockatoos and other exotic birds are no longer treated as commodities in the pet trade.
