Noah's Ark Animal Rehabilitation Center and Sanctuary, Inc

Noah's Ark Animal Sanctuary is dedicated to bringing children and animals together to provide unconditional love, nurturing care, and a future full of hope. Noah’s Ark has the following goals that relate to its mission:
1. To build a community where people value animals and treat them with respect and kindness.
2. To provide a high-quality life-long home for animals that are abused, injured, orphaned, or relinquished.
3. To educate the public about the issues surrounding the Captive Wildlife Crisis and other animal welfare issues of concern in the Unites States and abroad.
4. To assist other animal welfare organizations in their quest to provide high levels of care to captive animals and conserve their species in the wild.
5. To act as a community resource by taking in and providing care for injured or orphaned Native Georgia wildlife through the Wildlife Rehabilitation Program.
6. To establish a broad network of support that will continue to grow the Ark’s financial capacity and strength so the mission of the organization can continue to function with stability and purpose.

In order to achieve our mission and goals, Noah’s Ark Animal Sanctuary has plans and procedures in place:
Noah's Ark is one of the preferred destinations for confiscated and rescued animals through our state and federal partnerships with the Department of Natural Resources (DNR), United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), United States Department of the Interior (USDI), Georgia Department of Agriculture, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

As a true animal sanctuary, Noah’s Ark does not buy, breed, or loan our animals. Noah's Ark promotes humane, responsible, and informed animal treatment and ownership. We serve as a living classroom, helping students of all ages develop an appreciation for and sense of responsibility toward the treasure of animal and plant life on our Earth.

Noah’s Ark has been a leader in animal sanctuary care and in the rehabilitation of native wildlife since its founding in 1991, helping to set standards for ensuring that animals receive the high level of care necessary to address both their physical and psychological needs. Noah’s Ark provides a forever home for animals who have been determined to be living in abusive, unhealthy and neglectful situations by local, state and/or federal governmental agencies. Noah’s Ark offers educational programs to over 18,500 school-aged children annually to educate the community about the Captive Wildlife Crisis and other animal welfare issues, and how individuals can take action to protect the animals they learn about at Noah’s Ark and conserve their homes in the wild.

Noah’s Ark is open to the public free of charge in order to ensure that cost is not a factor in preventing people from learning about and being inspired by the animals. Over 150,000 individuals visit Noah’s Ark annually including over 18,500 school children participating in educational filed-trips. Volunteers are critical to the daily operations of the Ark with 200 individuals volunteering over 17,000 hours on average each year.

• Developed an exotic and domestic animal sanctuary that is a recognized leader among reputable animal sanctuaries in providing the highest standards of care required for the physical and psychological wellbeing of captive animals.
• Maintained the highest level of accreditation with state and local agencies.
• Noah’s Ark is a recognized leader in exotic and domestic animal rescue, working with other reputable sanctuaries to find permanent homes for animals in need, and continues to serve as a resource for local, state and federal governmental agencies when animals are in need of rescue.
• For the future, Noah’s Ark continues to welcome thousands of visitors each year, free of charge, so that humans can connect to animals and enjoy the wonders of nature; continues to expand its capacity to care for a sustainable number of rescued animals needing life-long care; hoping to expand its education programs; continue to raise the funds needed to further its important work on behalf of abused, injured, orphaned, and relinquished animals.
We are expanding our volunteer programs and launching a new private special event space for retreats, parties, reunions to promote Noah's Ark within the wider community.
