Frequently Asked Questions
When I make a donation, how is the money used?
100% of donations go towards things the animals need, including veterinary care, food, medications, surgeries, supplies, and upkeep of/improvements to their living areas.
Do the directors earn a salary?
No. Nancy and Jessie volunteer their time to run the organization and care for the animals. We don’t earn any money from the nonprofit. We are 100% volunteer-run.
I found a stray/lost animal or have one that needs a new home. Can I bring them to you?
Unfortunately, we are rarely able to take in animals directly from the public. Here’s what we recommend you do:
- What to do when you find a stray dog – always have the pet checked for a microchip before doing anything else! Any vet office will do this for free:
- Post a lost or found pet ad:
- Rehome Your Pet:
- Giving up your pet:

I'm curious about a vegan or plant-based diet. How can I get started?
Great! Eliminating meat and animal products from your diet is a great way to improve your health and to live a more humane existence by honoring the lives of the animals we share the planet with. Here are some resources:
