Nonprofit Overview

Causes: Animal Protection & Welfare, Animals

Mission: Animals In Distress is a non-profit, tax deductible sanctuary for animals who have little or no hope elsewhere. Our programs are designed to prevent suffering and to save lives. We believe that there is a special home somewhere for every pet if there is enough time to find it. We keep every animal admitted, providing medical care, behavioral rehabilitation, good food, shelter, and most important of all, love, until a suitable new home can be found. No animal is killed because it is unwanted, too old, or injured. All donations are used for animal care expenses, since no one is paid for administrative, fund raising, and other non-animal care duties that are performed by a dedicated group of unpaid volunteers. The shelter receives no tax or public monies and relies totally on donations and fund raisers for its total operating budget. Volunteers work hard at events all year round to raise money. A Radiothon, pet photos at Easter and Christmas, walkathons, special setups at malls and festivals, raffles, bake sales, craft and gift bazaars, the sale of various items – all of these are only some of the ways that the shelter raises funds. Our shelter newsletter, “Tails of Hope,” is our other main fund raising and public relations vehicle.

This is the most compassionate and humane shelter I've ever visited. They have special care animals that require much more time and medical attention and all of their needs are met. Each time I've visited this shelter it's immaculate and I love that the animals are allowed to socialize and bond with each other since they are not kept in cages but are kept in large separated rooms where they're suprevised. The staff knows the temperament and personality of each animal since they spend one on one time with all of them.

I'm always happy to donate to Animals In Distress because I can see that the money is well spent and they're always very appreciative.

God Bless the staff of Animals In Distress for the wonder and life saving work they do.

When bad things happen to animals due to negligence, torture or other horrid things that humans do, this organization is a steadfast light in the darkness. Those connected to this institution are a group of the most dedicated, loving, caring and devoted people you will ever come across in your lifetime.

They take the broken bones, hearts and devastation away from these pets and puts in its place love and hope for the hopeless. It costs them nothing to protect a pet from the abuser yet it takes thousands to keep them safe.

All monies collected go toward helping these poor animals that have been treated unfairly – set on fire, tossed from cars, spray painted, chained outdoors for years with no shelter, food or water, well, you get the idea. It is horrifying to know the human race can afflict such horrors onto those without a voice.

Animals in Distress is a beacon for those who cannot speak, for those who need our care, for those who cannot understand why these bad things happened to them.

They need your help – please, please donate today. If you can. Just one dollar will help.
More is better if you can afford it.

May God Bless and keep all those in the shelter safe and continue to be there for the millions of other pets yet to find this home of safety, warmth and love.
