URGENT SITUATION - PLEASE STOP HERE AND READ:
The political climate and election year has been extremely damaging to many non-profit organizations, Animal Guardian Network at Healing River Ranch is no exception.
The only thing that hasn’t changed or been affected is the record number of animals being neglected, abused, and discarded.
Reputable sanctuaries and rescues are extremely misused and underrated resources. They are expected to run with minimal support and funding yet be immediately available to assist in every situation. This is just not reasonable.
Animal Guardian Network at Healing River Ranch has worked tirelessly to maintain the highest standards while striving to make improvements to achieve sustainability.
Our greatest expense is hay. We met with several suppliers to negotiate discounted pricing. The only way we can achieve this is establishing a wholesale account which requires purchasing large quantities at a time. This will require an upfront investment and the ability to have proper storage.
Achieving our goal will mean a $24,000 annual savings. That significantly impacts Animal Guardian Network at Healing River Ranch’s ability to continue providing sanctuary to the most underserved demographic, elderly and special needs animals.
Unlike assisted living facilities for humans, there are rarely provisions made for subsidizing this type of care for animals.
*99.9% of owner surrenders default on their monthly financial obligation within two months. Unlike assisted care living facilities, we do not evict our residents for failure to pay.
This type of care and invaluable service requires a humane collective of support. It is impossible to achieve without it.
We have one generous anonymous donor willing to kickoff our campaign with a $10,000 match. A dollar for dollar match up to $10,000 to help Animal Guardian Network at Healing River Ranch achieve its goal. BUT IT WON’T HAPPEN WITHOUT EVERYONE’S HELP.
PLEASE do not turn a blind eye or hope others will make this happen. We are at a very critical point right now. PLEASE DONATE. PLEASE SHARE. Prayers are welcome but action is what’s needed. We cannot do it without your help.
