FOR THE LOVE OF PAWS

 MISSION STATEMENT

A sanctuary for providing peace of mind to senior citizens when they can no longer care for their pets when going into Hospice, Memory Care, Nursing Homes, Assisted Living or Rehab; and have no one to care for their pet.

To adopt these pets into forever homes, or provide lifetime sanctuary care for them so they may live out their lives to some comparison to what they had prior to losing their senior owners. Our sanctuary is a country farm and cage-less.

To establish a pet food bank and partnership with local food banks to help those in need to keep their pets, instead of abandoning or surrendering them to local shelters for lack of food.

To develop and present programs that match pets and their senior citizen owner to their mutual benefit.


PURPOSE FOR WHICH CONTRIBUTIONS ARE USED

To provide lifetime sanctuary care for senior citizen's pets who have been surrendered by the senior citizen owner, who could no longer care for them due to health or financial issues.

To maintain a pet food pantry to distribute pet food to senior citizens in need,  in partnership with local food banks distributing food to those in need.
