Mission
Working in partnership with our community to educate, cultivate, and facilitate the compassionate care and treatment of animals in high kill shelters in North Georgia, as well as assist those who need help to keep their pet.
Notes from the nonprofit
We work hard every day with our Outreach program to help families keep their pets by helping them with medical costs, preventatives and food. We will also pull dogs on local shelter's "last day" lists whenever we can find a foster. We pay for everything for our fosters so they only give their time and love. Without fosters and our faithful donors, we would not be able to help anyone. Donations are becoming harder and harder to come by. The board members and staff are giving more and more so we can continue helping as much as possible!

Communication
Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Increase our outreach program. During covid this has become a critical program. In January and February, I started volunteering at a vet and spoke to several other vets and shelters to help spread the word. We need to come up with ideas to do more fund raising as we are small and we are funding most of this program ourselves.\n\nMy strategic plan (which I couldn\u0027t figure out how to use the template above), is that we raise $5,000 by 12/31/21 for this program alone.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Canine Outreach
When times get tough, we support members of our community so they can keep their pets. This includes heartworm preventative medication, vaccinations, annual examinations, and food. Our goal is to reduce the number of owner surrenders at local shelters.
We're committed to spay and neuter through education and facilitation. We work with veterinarians to provide low cost spay and neuter surgery options. We recognize that low cost may still be too expensive and provide sponsorship on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us if you need assistance
Dog Rescue
To save dogs in high kill shelters in north GA and prepare them for their forever homes. We carefully screen applicants and check references and homes. Our dogs are the priority.

We also offer spay/neuter as an outreach option whenever possible. We do complete at least 4-5 spay/neuters a year for outreach as funds allow in addition to our rescue dogs. No dog is adopt intact.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
More monthly donors\nHopefully Event donors (once covid opens up)\nStory board or two at events
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Continue to raise funds via word of mouth and Facebook/Instagram (however this has slowed significantly).\nApproach corporations for sponsorships\nMaybe small business support depending on the Covid situation
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
We need to recruit volunteers to help with reaching our goals. My partner and I will also work hard to achieve them ourselves if need be.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
We have helped several people with food, vaccinations, spay/neuters, and monthly preventatives, along with a special surgery here and there. Lots of folks that need help due to Covid. We have done a lot of split bills with people as wel.
