Food Empowerment Project seeks to create a more just and sustainable world by recognizing the power of one’s food choices. We encourage healthy food choices that reflect a more compassionate society by spotlighting the abuse of animals on farms, the depletion of natural resources, unfair working conditions for produce workers, and the unavailability of healthy foods in low-income areas. By making informed choices, we can prevent injustices against animals, people, and the environment. We also work to discourage negligent corporations from pushing unhealthy foods into low-income areas and empower people to make healthier choices by growing their own fruits and vegetables. In all of our work, Food Empowerment Project seeks specifically to empower those with the fewest resources.

We seek to increase the supply and specialties of highly-trained Assistance Dogs available to meet the challenges, particularly medical challenges, encountered by individuals and our society as a whole. Our Service Dog program provides trained assistance dogs to individuals with mobility impairments for the purpose of increasing the recipients' independence. Our Medical Detection Dog program provides Diabetic Assistance Dogs to individuals with diabetes for the purpose of improving each individual's healthcare. Our programs are "open-source" and we are committed to freely sharing what we learn through our work. We do this because we believe that sharing ideas, techniques, and research will encourage innovation, growth and high standards in the Assistance Dog industry, ultimately benefiting both clients and their dogs far more than a narrower focus on our organization would.

CCR is focused on rescuing homeless dogs & some special cats from high-kill shelters in Tennessee, placing them in loving foster homes until they help them find their perfect, forever family. They pride themselves on doing whatever is necessary, and it can often take several months to return an animal to good health. They succeed only because of the generosity of loving volunteers who take these animals into their homes, who make them part of the family while providing care, training, and love. The foster environment allows the CCR animals to be assessed for behavioral and health issues and have those issues addressed. Then every attempt is made to find the best possible forever family for each animal.

This rescue is built on the promise that every animal that comes to the rescue will be treated as a part of the family; and here at My ‘Little’ Animal Kingdom Rescue, we keep our promises. My 'Little' Animal Kingdom Rescue is a 501(c) 3 Non Profit that takes in reptiles, birds, small animals, and more! (Excluding dogs, cats, livestock, and wildlife) We are not only here to take in animals who need us, but we are also here to support those families that are needing to find a new home for their pet(s) or who simply need guidance. Even if we cannot take in a pet, we do what we can to help that family find their family member a new home, whether this is recommending another rescue, helping with exposure for the animal(s), or simply keeping in touch and letting them know when we do have space to take their pet(s) in. We do not look down upon those who ask for our help, we understand it is never an easy decision to surrender a pet and we strive to keep our rescue positive and supportive. We are also here for educational purposes. My ‘Little’ Animal Kingdom Rescue was also established to help bring a better understanding of the proper care of animals. We love answering questions regarding someone’s pet(s) or helping someone to decide what type of pet may be a good fit for them. We are strong advocates of doing research and understanding at least the basic care of any animal, before bringing them home.
We are committed to the care of Saving Wildlife through the care and treatment of sick, injured and orphaned animals.
