3.8K FOLLOWER FUNDRAISER β LET'S MAKE A DIFFERENCE TOGETHER! πΎπ
We wanted to share how far we've come and sincerely thank everyone who has already donated, shared our posts, volunteered, or supported our animals in any way
π° Raised: $388
π― Goal: $3,800
πΎ Remaining: $3,412
Our original idea was simple:
We have approximately 3,800 followers. If every follower donated just $1, we could raise $3,800!
Of course, we understand not everyone can donate, and that's perfectly okay. Even sharing this post can make a difference!
But we want to show everyone what that $3,800 could actually accomplish for the hundreds of animals in our care.

π LET'S TALK ABOUT OUR CURRENT EXPENSES!
Many people may not realize that several wonderful local businesses work with us regularly and let us maintain accounts for services and supplies.
These relationships are vital to our nonprofit, and we're grateful to the businesses that continue to help us care for our animals.
Here are our current balances:
π Rainbow Bridge Pet Cremations β $1,040
Rainbow Bridge provides compassionate cremation services for animals who pass away while in our care.
As difficult as it is to say goodbye, we believe every animal deserves dignity and respect, even after they've crossed the Rainbow Bridge.
Our current outstanding balance is $1,040.
Supporters can pay Rainbow Bridge directly by phone, in person, or through their website.
π https://rainbowbridgepetcremations.com/
They have a dedicated M&B Farm & Hatchery payment section right on their homepage!
Please reference M&B Farm & Hatchery when making a payment.
πΎ Pine Haven Stables & Riding Academy β $300
Our friend Christy Parker at Pine Haven helps provide hay for our livestock.
Our current outstanding balance is $300.
However, we are currently COMPLETELY OUT OF HAY! πΎ
Our next load will cost another $360, bringing our balance to about $660 if we don't make a payment beforehand.
Hay is essential for our livestock, and keeping it available is one of our most important ongoing responsibilities.
Supporters can make payments directly through:
π Venmo:
π Memo: M&B Farm & Hatchery Inc.
πͺ΅ True Cut Saw Works, LLC. β $450
True Cut Saw Works, operated by Brittian Flowers, provides wood and tree services that help us maintain and improve the farm.
Our current outstanding balance is $450.
They've been wonderful about letting us carry an account and make payments for services.
Supporters can contribute directly through:
π Venmo: -Flowers
π Memo: M&B Farm & Hatchery Inc.
π IMPORTANT: WHAT IF A VENDOR'S BALANCE GETS PAID OFF?
All three of these businesses provide services that we use regularly!
If we pay off one of our outstanding balances, we can keep additional on our account toward future services.
That means your contribution still helps the animals, even if someone else has already paid a particular bill!
Having credit available for future hay deliveries, cremation services, or farm maintenance can make an enormous difference.

π½ FEED SOUTH β HELP US KEEP THE FEED BINS FULL!
Animal feed is one of our largest and most consistent expenses.
With hundreds of animals depending on us every day, we use an incredible amount of feed!
Supporters can make donations directly to our account at:
π½ Feed South
π 3880 Brunswick Hwy, Waycross, GA 31503
π (912) 548-1475
Account: M&B Farm & Hatchery Inc.
You can contribute in person or over the phone.
Any money placed on our account remains as credit toward future feed purchases!
Whether it's $5, $10, or $100, every contribution helps us keep the animals fed.

π TRACTOR SUPPLY β ORDER SUPPLIES DIRECTLY!
Did you know you can buy farm supplies without sending us money?
You can order items online through Tractor Supply and arrange pickup at any of these three locations:
π Brunswick, GA
π Jesup, GA
π WaycrosList M&B Farm & Hatchery as the pickup person, then message us with the store location and order information so we can arrange pickup.
We regularly purchase feed, fencing supplies, hardware, animal care products, and many other necessities from Tractor Supply.
π GIFT CARDS COUNT TOO!
We also regularly shop at:
π Tractor Supply
π¨ Ace Hardware
Gift cards to either store are incredibly helpful!
We use them for everything from feed and fencing to lumber, hardware, repairs, and general farm maintenance.
And yes, gift cards count toward our $3,800 fundraiser goal!
A $25 gift card counts as $25.
A $50 gift card counts as $50.
A $100 gift card counts as $100.
Gift cards let us buy what we need without dipping into our operating funds.

πππ΄π NOW, LET'S TALK ABOUT OUR FALL & WINTER PROJECTS!
This is where reaching our fundraiser goal could make an incredible difference!
Fall is here, winter is approaching, and we have several important projects to complete around the farm.
These aren't cosmetic improvements. They directly affect our animals' safety, comfort, and well-being.
ππ REPLACING GOAT & SHEEP SHELTERS
Several of our existing shelters need replacement.
Our goats and sheep need safe, sturdy, dry shelters to protect them from rain, wind, and colder temperatures.
Providing adequate shelter is especially important as we head into winter.
π΄ HORSE & DONKEY SHELTER
Our horse and donkey shelter is another major project.
The existing structure needs to be replaced, and we want to ensure our larger livestock have a safe, dependable place to get out of the weather.
π DOG KENNEL GATES
We still need to replace or upgrade kennel gates.
Secure kennels are essential for keeping our rescue dogs safe, and completing these improvements will help us maintain safer, more dependable enclosures.
π§ FINISHING OUR MAIN FENCE
We've already made progress on our fencing, but we still need to complete sections of our main fence.
Finishing this project will help improve security around the property and provide additional protection for the animals.
With fall and winter here, we'd really like to make substantial progress on these projects!
ββββββββββββββββββββ
π° SO WHAT WOULD REACHING $3,800 ACTUALLY DO?
Let's break it down!
π Rainbow Bridge Pet Cremations: $1,040
πͺ΅ True Cut Saw Works: $450
πΎ Pine Haven Stables: $300
πΎ Next Hay Delivery: $360
TOTAL CURRENT BALANCES & UPCOMING HAY: $2,150
π― Fundraiser Goal: $3,800
π POTENTIALLY REMAINING FOR FARM PROJECTS: $1,650!
That's right!
If we reach our goal, we could pay off all three current vendor balances, cover our next hay delivery, and still have about $1,650 for our fall and winter projects!
That remaining amount could cover the bulk of the shelter replacements, dog kennel gate improvements, and main fencing work we're trying to complete.
Of course, farm expenses never completely stop. We will always need more feed, more repairs, and more animals needing care.
But imagine the difference it would make to get these accounts caught up and complete most of these projects!
It would relieve tremendous financial pressure and let us direct more of our future resources to caring for the animals.

π£ A QUICK NOTE ABOUT FACEBOOK FUNDRAISERS
Facebook fundraisers automatically close after a certain period, and each new fundraiser starts with a fresh counter.

We keep a running total of all contributions so everyone can see our actual progress.

ππΎ OUR GOAL IS MORE THAN JUST A NUMBER!
We're not simply trying to raise $3,800.
We're trying to catch up on outstanding accounts, secure our next hay delivery, replace aging animal shelters, improve our dog kennels, and finish important fencing projects before winter.
We're working to ensure the animals who depend on us have the food, shelter, security, and care they deserve.
We're doing all of this while continuing our everyday rescue, sanctuary, and educational work.
3,800 followers. Just $1 each. Imagine what we could accomplish together! π
To everyone who has already supported us, THANK YOU!
Whether you've donated $1, purchased supplies, paid toward a vendor account, volunteered your time, or shared our posts, you help keep this farm going.
We appreciate every one of you!
