Years ago I joined United Animal Nations. I drove past the modest UAN building when I visited in Sacramento, California. I followed them by newsletter and magazine. A few years ago UAN changed its name to RedRover. The good work for animals continued and expanded. These are real people doing human being things for animals, and they're not too big, not aloof. They are always training volunteers who are there in place in a crisis, or who can travel swiftly to the scene where they are needed. I am very proud of having supported this great organization for many years.

I donate to Red Rover because of their steadfast commitment to animals and animal welfare. Their incredible disaster response and animal rescue efforts, their children's literacy project that educates kids about empathy for and understanding of animals, and their lifeline grants that have given so many desperate animals another chance are why I will continue to donate to this 5-star nonprofit.

I had been meaning to put together some fliers warning people of the dangers of leaving their pets in a car on hot days, when wouldn't you know it, I received an e-mail from the Care2 organization. The Care2 organization had a link on this very subject, with the link taking me to the RedRover website. I ordered some great fliers and posters from RedRover which were exactly what I had been looking for. I checked out the organization on the www.CharityNavigator.org site, and RedRover has very good ratings as a charity organization. So I decided to donate on the spot. I will continue to watch this charity, and if they continue to be rated as a reputable and effective organization, I will continue making donations to help them with the great work that they do. Thanks for the wonderful and compassionate work that you do RedRover!

I am so impressed with Red Rover. I love the fact that they go in when large scale rescues are needed as was the case during Hurricane Irene and the Joplin tornado. Red Rover has done a sensational job of exposing the misery Premarin mares endure on the pee lines and the slaughter of resulting foals so mothers can be bred again and again for this "harmful" and unnecessary drug. The grants provided to needy individuals who are seeking veterinary help for their animals are so heartwarming to read. I can put myself in the place of many of these folks who love their animals dearly and just need a bit of financial help. The "lifeline" grants are a wonderful thing to do.

I've been donating to RedRover for years ever since Hurricane Katrina. I like the fact that they respond so quickly and how they try to educate people about preparing ahead of time to take care of their animals when there is an unexpected emergency. I also like this new program where they help abused families to have someplace to board their pet when they are forced to go to a shelter.

I first heard about RedRover (formerly United Animal Nations) after Katrina. I was drawn to this organization because they use volunteers to go to areas hit with disasters to care for the animals left behind or displaced. I have watched them grow over the years and now with the hurricane on the east coast they are standing by with people to help animals in need. I try to support them as much as I can, even though it's not a huge amount. There aren't huge administrative salaries involved here; but a lot of volunteers.

UAN's Emergency Animal Rescue Service is my favorite charity in which to donate. I cannot volunteer at the rescue sites myself, so I feel like I am helping in some real way by sending donations when I can. EARS is a magnificent organization.

This is the best animal disaster organization there is. With all the natural disasters now a days I am very, very Greatful this organization exists. The donations go straight to helping the animals not to big expensive offices. I donate every time I have extra to give, because I know they'll be there for my kids if I ever need them.

United Animal Nations acts on behalf of the various nations of animals in our midst whose lives have been jeopardized by circumstances beyond their control. They organize, train, and deploy volunteers from around the country in the service of animals in need. UAN efforts an impressive array of programs designed to do everything from save lives outright to educate and enhance understanding of the human-animal bond. It's been said you judge a nation by how they treat their animals. UAN's staff and volunteers do work at standards that exceed greatness - they are a great nation unto themselves!

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
Seeing previously neglected animals rescued, shown love, and their lives directed to healing and new homes.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
The best kind of humans on the planet; the kind that you wish we all were. They know the value of what they're doing and they pursue it with their whole heart.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
Expand it's operations! Create jobs! Improve volunteer recruitment & training! Operate regional HQs with well-equipped staff! Sponsor expanded in-classroom animal education! And a whole lot more, I'm sure!!
