Mission

When a donkey suffers because people are unkind, Oscar’s Place steps in. We’re a committed team of everyday individuals who provide a safe haven for donkeys in need. Oscar's Place has a singular mission: to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home these loving and trusting creatures. We carry out this mission through hands-on care for every donkey, every day—preparing them for qualified and caring adoptive homes. We want to show them that humans can be good.

Charting impact

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

When a donkey suffers because people are unkind, Oscar’s Place steps in. We’re a committed team of everyday individuals who provide a safe haven for equines in need. Oscar's Place has a singular mission: to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home these loving and trusting creatures. We carry out this mission through hands-on care for every donkey, every day—preparing them for qualified and caring adoptive homes. We want to show them that humans can be good.

Existing program strategy:
Rescue donkeys destined for slaughter.

How to focus on our "northern star":
Once here, do everything in our power to keep each donkey safe, healthy & happy for the rest of it's life.

Expansion of existing programs:
Raise awareness of how awesome donkeys are and their current plight.

Oscar's Place (staff and board) focuses externally to mobilize for the mission of the organization in the following way:
Engage in strategic partnerships with other nonprofit, public and/or private sector organizations.
Engage in thought leadership activities such as presenting at conferences, publishing research, etc.
Community building, training and/or organizing.
Participate in networks or collective impact efforts to develop shared goals across multiple organizations.
Raise awareness of mission and cause through marketing activities, social media, etc.
Local, state, and/or federal policy advocacy

We are 15 months in and have had a strong launch year. We have saved over 130 donkeys destined for slaughter, developing financial planning and fundraising to support a $1.4m annual operating budget and received national press recognition from Washington Post, USA Today and CBS Mornings.
