Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

We hope to help those without voices. Our main goal is to educate as many residents, so that one day our city will conquer the animal crisis we are facing. We hope to help not only those found wondering the streets, but also those at the shelters. We believe every animal has a story and deserves a second chance to find happiness.

We need to continue fundraising to be able to afford the high prices of medical care for those who join our rescue. Our local events help us find more volunteers to help us foster. Fosters save lives. We also manage a local lost & found page that helps reunite those with their owners. Educating the community is key to making a change. Our adoption stories help us grow among the community and those who support our rescue efforts. We will continue to grow our social media and marketing campaigns.

We have a strong volunteer army that works hard to promote our rescue. Everyone understands the importance of working together as a team to help those without voices. We are open to helping all breeds and understand that this is a team effort. Each one of us has fosters at home with our own pets. Treating them as part of our family has helped in very successful adoptions. We have a limit of animals we can help based on our budget, but hope to be able to get more donations and increase our intake numbers

Our rescue is now recognized not only in the city of Houston, El Paso, Oregon, Washington, and Idaho from successful adoptions and stories shared on our social media pages. We have been mention in the Houston Chronicle and Channel 2 local news for our work to help the animal rescue community.
