DISASTER
Fire Destroys Our Shelter
11/11/2020
No animals were harmed and all were removed safely and in time.
Unfortunately we have lost everything.
40+ animals are now being sheltered in Calvin's personal residence!
Your help and support is needed now more than ever.
The cold SD winter is now upon us and the average night temperature is 20 degrees.
We need all the help we can get to rebuild as quickly as possible.

A COVID CRISIS-
We Really Need Your Help!
One of the most vital part's of any rescue organization is the rescue vehicle. Without a rescue vehicle, rehoming and rescuing just isn't so easy.
We are so thankful for our new vehicles.
Due to the Covid-19 virus- donations have been down 90% and sales have been down 98%! With donations being so low and being one of our only sources of funding, we have not been able to get proper insurance on our new rescue vehicles.
Please consider donating to help us insure our rescue vehicles, without we are unable to rescue and rehome as many as we could.
Pilamiya Yelo (thank you)
