Adopt an Alpaca
A virtual alpaca adoption makes a great gift for yourself or for a loved one. It’s perfect for animal lovers and for those people who seem to have everything. And when you adopt an alpaca with us, you are also supporting a great cause by helping to care for the Sisters of Providence of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods White Violet Center alpacas. We so appreciate your support.
How to adopt your alpaca
The cost to adopt an alpaca for one year is $100. Your donation helps provide for the upkeep of our animals and sacred grounds. It’s a unique opportunity to support the Sisters of Providence and our ministries.
Each adoption includes:
- a 5″ x 7″ photo of your alpaca
- a personalized adoption certificate
- a thank-you letter that explains the impact of the program.
When you adopt an alpaca (or two), you can choose to send your gift directly to the lucky recipient or have it delivered to you.

Your support of the Adopt an Alpaca experience is truly a blessing to the Sisters of Providence. Every adoption helps to sustain and grow our ministries.
Your adoption can include one up-close visit with your alpaca for you and a guest during the adoption year. (Additional guests can be added for $5 each.) Adoption visits last around 20 minutes. During this time, we will do our best to get you up close to your alpaca – as long as they are willing and able. This is a great time to take photos, give them a pet and feed them a few treats that we will provide. Because we are a working farm, advance notice is required. We suggest at least 10-14 days to ensure we have staffing available to accommodate your requested date and time. We may not be able to accommodate last minute requests. Additionally, we may host other VIP events with our alpacas so be sure to keep your information updated so we can contact you. Reserve possible times for your alpaca visit here.
