What
do we do?
We
are dedicated to raising financial assistance so that loving homes
might more easily rescue abandoned pets, thus to reduce the number of
pets languishing in shelters across our country — or, worse, being
euthanized.
We search for families as well as group homes, nursing homes,
and other nontraditional settings to find forever homes for abandoned
pets. We support these new homes, as needed, by paying for the initial
rescue fees and up to two years' worth of veterinary care.
Any other
goals?
We recognize that some pets may simply never be adoptable. We
intend, granting your goodwill, to establish a facility on a small farm
to provide a permanent home for pets in whom no one else sees value.
The goal is to make give these pets a home rather than keeping them
confined in a shelter for life.
How do we
pay for this?
To generate funds, we solicit cash donations from people like you and
from businesses. We are drawing up plans to open a thrift store
and, later on, a pet-supply store and perhaps other retail concepts to
raise funds. We will hire as many challenged adults as possible to
operate the store(s) and to help oversee the distribution of funds to
needy adoptive homes.
How much of
your donation goes to the pets?
All staff here are volunteers and derive an income from other work.
We're passionate about this cause. Rather than extracting a salary for
this work, we put in our own money to cover operating expenses. One
hundred percent of your donation goes directly toward helping deserving
homes obtain and care for an otherwise abandoned pet until the major
initial expenses of adoption have been dealt with.
Why do we
do this?
We hope that these endeavors, through your generous assistance, will
greatly assist in reducing the number of abandoned pets languishing in
animal shelters and also reduce the number of pets put down due to
overpopulation of these humane shelters across the country.
