Agricultural Steel Building in Walterboro, South Carolina

Sunward Steel Buildings manufactured and supplied this pre-engineered metal building in Walterboro, South Carolina, in April of 2015 just miles from our South Carolina factory.

Nowadays, it serves triple-duty as an animal sanctuary, conservatory and rehabilitation center for Keeper of the Wild, a South Carolina-based nonprofit dedicated to protecting, rehabilitating and relocating the state’s injured or orphaned wildlife. Sturdy and secure, the prefabricated building features premium-quality steel construction, providing a safe environment for animals where they can improve their health and regain their mobility following hardships.

Peace & Protection for Animals in Need

Keeper of the Wild has helped thousands of injured and orphaned animals from across South Carolina since its inception, providing compassionate care and a safe place for them to regain their strength and independence. The ultimate goal is to give each animal an opportunity to improve its health to the point where staff and volunteers can re-release it into the wild, allowing it to resume its normal life.

A part of Colleton County, the city of Walterboro sits a short drive from the South Carolina coast. The community lies about 49 miles outside Charleston and roughly 67 miles from Savannah, Georgia.
