Programs and results
What we aim to solve
We support animal welfare organizations with projects needed to improve the quality of life for homeless pets. Many of these organizations do not have fundraising help. Our project based mission identifies the needs of these groups, fundraises and markets for them in order to provide life saving and life enhancing funds.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
The Old Dog House Fence Fund
We are raising money to purchase a fence for a lot secured by The Old Dog House for a play yard for their residents. The lot will contain a warm water hydrotherapy pool in the future.
Kitten Army
Kitten Army is a program to recruit, educate and retain foster families for homeless kittens at Jacksonville Animal Care and protective Services.
TAILS training and adoption center
Raising $25,000 for Pit Sisters TAILS (Teaching Animals and Inmates Life Skills) dogs in prison program. These funds will be used to identify a location for the center and assist with start up costs. The center will provide training for shelter dogs pulled from shelters in NE Florida to enter the TAILS program. The center will also house dogs waiting to enter the program as well as graduates from the program until they are adopted.
Empowerment Ranch
We will be raising funds for Empowerment Ranch, a horse and farm animal sanctuary to complete 3 projects. We will be building a goat house, repairing arena fencing and building new cross pasture fencing.
