What it says it does

Rescuing dogs/cats that are in danger of being euthanized at shelters, ensure they receive veterinary care provided by a license veterinarian, promote, advertise and through a screening process place rescued anima in loving forever homes. We take in owner surrenders, as an alternate to placing their dog/cat in public shelter. We will organize fundraising events and programs to aid in the administration of care, treatment and rehabilitation. Provide workshops and events to educate and inform individuals in the community on the increasingly high number of unwanted pets, importance of spaying/neutering and humane treatment of animals

Governance

This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.
