Their Mission: Operation Paws for Homes rescues dogs of all breeds and ages from high-kill shelters reducing the numbers being euthanized. Most of our dogs come from rural shelters in South and North Carolina, as well as Virginia. We also partner with local shelters as needed. Our organization provides pet adoption services to families located in Virginia, Washington DC, Maryland, Southern Pennsylvania and neighboring states. OPH does not operate a shelter or have a physical location. We rely on foster families who open their homes to give love and attention to each dog before finding a forever home. Through the foster care program, we are able to learn about each dog and their needs and we provide their potential and future adopters with this information. We believe in responsible adoptions and strive to work with each adopter to find a good match for their home and lifestyle. We are fortunate to have over 200 active volunteers who help OPH find forever homes for over 1,000 dogs a year, to carry out education and outreach events throughout the DMW, and conduct donation drives for our partner shelters in the south. Operation Paws for Homes, a 501(c)(3) organization, is 100% donor funded. We receive no funding from federal, state, or county governments. As a result, we rely on the generous donations from our supporters and the adoption fees for each dog in order to save the dogs in need that join our rescue organization. Our goal is to fulfill the dreams of dogs who find themselves abandoned in shelters. Sadly, without our help, all of these adoptable animals would face almost certain euthanasia - usually within days or hours of arriving at the shelter. Each year we take in hundreds of wonderful animals who were left at shelters by no fault of their own. We work hard to unite them with forever families who will give them the life and love they deserve. Without the dedication of our incredible adopters, fosters, donors, and volunteers, we would be unable to fulfill this dream.
A charitable organization dedicated to providing direct solutions to families with financial hardships so that they may avoid having to surrender or separate from a beloved pet.
Ken-Mar Rescue is a 501c3, non-profit, Los Angeles-based, small dog rescue. We are foster-based, cage-free, and donor supported. We rescue, rehabilitate and rehome "last day" dogs that would otherwise be euthanized. We offer adoptions throughout Southern California and beyond. Our orphans are sterilized, up-to-date with shots and microchipped. We do home checks on all potential adoptions before finalizing. Ken-Mar Rescue's mission is to save neglected small dogs and introduce them to their forever families. Ken-mar Rescue depends on donors, foster parents, volunteers and fundraisers to continue its life-saving work.
Our mission is "to partner with our community to save more animals."
Our mission is to rescue homeless, abandoned, neglected or abused dogs. By working with committed volunteers, already established veterinarians and trainers, we will nurture, provide medical care and rehabilitation to these animals while providing a safe and loving cage-free environment for as long as it takes to find them adoptive homes.
Labrador Hill Sanctuary Inc is a permanent sanctuary to over 50 horses, donkeys, ponies and mules with a commitment to the preservation of life, the ending of horse slaughter, and humane education for students from ages 2-adult. We provide long term care for equines at all stages of their lives, and foster empathy in students to work with animals of all abilities, whether rideable or not. While honoring the long and rich history of human-equine relationships, we hope to move public opinion in the 21st century towards inclusion of these intelligent animals into the mainstream of society, with attendant rights , dignity, and funding. We offer both a natural horsemanship program and an equine assisted psychotherapy program, along with services for veterans and inner city students.
Animal Rescue, inc. Is a section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization. Our mission statement is “helping animals, helping people.” We have been dedicated to alleviating animal suffering and promoting a humane ethic through programs that mutually benefit animals and people since 1976. Our organization serves the Maryland-South Central Pennsylvania area, which includes the cities of Baltimore, MD and York, PA. We operate a no-kill shelter, or as we prefer to call it, “shelter for life” for hundreds of homeless dogs and cats on 25 acres of property just over the Maryland-Pennsylvania line in new freedom, pa and manage an on-site spay/neuter clinic. Animal Rescue, Inc. Is a predominantly volunteer organization. We have a team of 118 volunteers and 38 employees who help to administer our programs. All of our organization’s officers and directors, including grace froelich, animal rescue, inc. ’s volunteer president & executive director, who has been responsible for administering our organization’s programs on a full-time basis for the past 34 years, serve as volunteers. The majority of our volunteers have been with our organization for many years, some for decades. Having the benefit of so many dedicated volunteers, as well as a network of participating veterinarians who provide medical services at reduced fees, ensures a very cost-effective use of our funding dollars -- our total management and fund-raising expenses for our most recently filed form 990 tax return (fiscal year 8/1/08 to 7/31/09) were only 10. 8%. That, of course, means that out of every dollar donated, more than 89 cents goes where it should -- to helping the animals.
