We’re so grateful for everyone who has checked in on the sheep we rescued last month! The three renegades are thriving, enjoying their cozy accommodations, and of course, the “room service” they now expect daily. It’s heartwarming to see how happy and healthy they’ve become in such a short time.

A special thank-you goes out to two of our incredible board directors, who generously stepped up to provide bedding, food, and all the essentials to keep our woolly friends comfortable and cared for. Your kindness and unwavering support inspire us and, we hope, others to continue making a difference.

If you’d like to contribute to the care of the sheep or help with future rescues, please consider making a tax-deductible donation through our secure website at www.PonyUp4Kids.com. Every donation, no matter the size, helps us provide the love and care these animals deserve. Thank you for being part of our mission to make the world a kinder place!
