Good morning friends.
This post is coming with heavy hearts concerned about our current situation with the rescue.
We have over 100 animals in our care and have had minimal interests in our amazing animals, minimal monetary donations, along with bills that are accumulating. We know we are not alone in this struggle. Rescues everywhere are closing doors and adoptions are at standstills. We are extremely worried.
Roland (pictured) is just one of many needing you to continue your support. Our monthly expenditures vary at around $14,000. This includes:
✅ mortgage
✅ insurance (liability, building, van)
✅ van maintenance & gasoline
✅ utilities- water, sewer, dumpster, internet, gas, electric
✅ vaccines, wormer, flea and tick preventative
✅ supplies if not donated
❌ This does NOT include vetting: spays, neuters, rabies, 4DX, URI’s, injuries, surgeries, Heartworm treatment, etc.
❌ We do NOT get funding from the state or other sources besides: donations, fundraisers or grants when available (very competitive), due to being a registered 501c3 charity.
We work ENDLESSLY trying to raise funds and are honestly exhausted at the hard facts that face us.
❣️ We need volunteers!
❣️ We need people sharing every single post!
❣️We need comments under posts to help with the algorithms!
❣️We need people attending our events, if even just to offer moral support!
❣️WE NEED ALL OF YOU!

We are so beyond grateful for the recent outpour of support of supply donations and messages wanting to help. We need a significant boost currently from everyone to help us continue our mission. It’s difficult to “imagine” alternatives that we could possibly face. 😪
Thank you, as always. ❤️🙏
