There aren't enough kind words to say about Christina and Luckie-Street Project! My fiancé and I were blown away by Christina's dedication, commitment, and sincere desire to find the best homes for rescue animals. The process of adopting Uno was handled with the highest level of care and responsibility. We could not be more excited to have Uno as part of our family, and there is no doubt that he was always supposed to be part of our home. We wouldn't have found this missing piece without Luckie-Street Project!

Luckie-Street Project, and owner Christina Graff, are the premiere version of Caretaking of Animals. She, together with a support team all over the country, places pets, gets their health care needs met, completes home visits, makes referrals and does most of the transporting, if not all. This is the person behind so many animals finding good homes, new families, so the animals can live a nicer life and reintegrate with society. Christina is tireless in her efforts and it shows in every action she takes with the organization. I have one of her rehomed animals and the addition to my home has made life much more enjoyable, all because I said yes and Christina transported my new pet. This woman has the strength of steel and the heart of an Earth Angel.

I was able to adopt a specials needs cat from this organization, Luckie Street Project They traveled from Kennesaw GA to Tampa FL to perform a home check and they contacted my references. My other pets were also looked at to see if there were going to be any conflict of the special need cat being home here. Everything fell into place perfectly. The white cat in the photos is Casper. Casper is the new addition to my home, she has adjusted to my home and the other pets quite nicely. I have had two or three occasions where I have needed financial assistance for my pets, and without hesitation, I was told I would be helped as soon as possible. It relieved me of worry, my pets are my world, They provide so much emotional and comical relief, they are just my sweethearts and my furbabies. Having an organization like Lucky Street take care of so many pets and pet needs is an amazing and purposeful community service. If we could all be so selfless, this world would be a much better place. This world is a much better place because of Lucky Street Project and Christina Graff.

Christina is a wonderful, kind hearted soul. She works endlessly to find the best homes for animals, and her love of animals is so clear. I wouldn’t have found my beautiful kitty without her, and I’m so grateful for everything she’s done! I couldn’t say enough kind words about Christina and Luckie Street.

Christina at Luckie Street has the biggest heart. She goes the extra mile to ensure all of her fur babies are happy, healthy and will be loved and placed in the perfect forever home. Luckie Street brought us our boy, Sammy. We could not imagine life without him! Thank you Christina for everything you do.

Luckie Street Project has been a godsend for me and my fur babies. I was desperately in need of help with two of my four cats. Luckie Street immediately came to the rescue. This organization is passionate about pets, swift in action, and a tremendous resource in the community. My pets would probably not be here with me and my family today if it were not for the assistance of Luck Street Project! Thank you once again!!

A great charity, for keeping pets with their families in struggling times like these. Helping to provide funds for emergency services for pets is a great idea. Plus the additional food pantry helping to provide a healthy diet for your pet. Rescuing and finding propper homes for those animals of neglect and abuse. My little buddy here is living proof it works. THANKS!!!

Getting our fur babies from Luckie Street was the best thing that ever happened to us! We adopted a bonded pair and we couldn't be happier. The process was smooth and I think our babies were home within 2 weeks of when I first contacted them. They still check up on us from time to time and we are glad to be a part of the Luckie Street family. We highly recommend them!

I've been a dog person all my life. Sadly for me, my husband really didn't want a puppy (puppies are a lot of work!), so we were cat people. Then came the kids. They, too, eventually wanted a dog. My husband recently decided that we could get a dog. I was elated! I jumped online to find the right dog for us. I wanted a girl. She had to be good with cats and kids. I wanted a medium to large dog. I found Nellie (at the time she was Lucy) with Luckie-Street Project. I read her bio and saw a pic of her, and I knew she was the dog for us. I submitted a request for more info. I kept checking on the available dogs, but kept checking on Nellie. Then I got the call from Christina! She wanted to meet with us as a family to see if she thought we were a fit. Christina talked with our family, met our cats, told us about Nellie...it went well. At the end, she told us that she would drive to get Nellie for us (4+ hours each way!) when she could. Wow, that was great! Little did we know she would do it the next day. It was finally happening; we were getting a dog! The next afternoon, Christina brought Nellie to our house, and we started to get to know each other. She was fantastic! I can't thank Christina and all the volunteers at Luckie-Street Project for all they do. The foster home families are so kind and generous to love and care for these animals until a forever home is found for these loving animals. Nellie has found her forever home with us!

Luckie Street Project stepped up to assist when I was seeking help for 10 cats abandoned by a hoarder who moved and left them behind. They lived on a street near me. Another rescue helped as well. We had a cat test positive for heart worms and Luckie Street managed to find someone from a third rescue group to take him. All of the cats were rescued from an uncertain life in an unsafe location.

Luckie Street helps with all sorts of difficult medical situations for pet families in financial need. They helped me out with quite a few of the expenses for my cat who developed dry eye disease and had to have multiple medications for prevention of eye ulcers. I was also able to get assistance for a dental cleaning for my dog. The only time I couldn’t get help was when they were short on funds because of helping other clients in need. They are very dedicated and accomplish a lot especially for a small organization.

My experience with Luckie Street began in its earliest days, before it was even actually an official nonprofit.
Luckie Street began as the brainchild of a woman who’s compassion for and knowledge of an animal’s need for not only the most basic of elements such as food, health and safe shelter, but also for fun, love, and ultimately their forever home.
Christina always calls my Bella, my beautiful Queen of a Golden Retriever, her first rescue. Bella was an 8 week old pup and she, along with her litter mates were the “victims” of a nasty divorce. Bella crossed paths with Christina, and Christina knew I was mourning the recent loss of my 14 year old Cocker Spaniel,!and knew that Bella was the balm my soul needed. And boy was she right! Nine years later, Bella and I are still together, so thankful for that fateful night, her little blonde body crossed Christina’s door step.
Most recently, Christina also helped our Sofia come into our lives. Found abandoned at a dog park, she was placed at a shelter, until, hopefully, the owners could come claim her. That never happened. Christina monitored her situation all the while, from shelter, to vet, to foster...and when that foster didn’t work out, I stepped in...knowing all the while I was going to be a total foster failure, after taking one look at Sofia’s picture, I was a goner. Nearly 2 years later, this precious girl has brought us joy and laughter, love and concern...and she is flourishing daily.
What impresses me daily about Christina and Luckie Street is her tireless efforts to help not only these animals, but the people who love them. The main crux of Luckie Street’s mission is to keep people and their beloved fur babies together in tough times. Very often, and without intent, a pet’s care often falls by the wayside when a family is economically challenged. It’s all they can do to keep themselves going. And yet, the one element of joy and comfort, the fur baby, is accidentally forgotten...it’s a terrible paradox.
Christina’s organization help to combat that very dilemma by raising funds to either; keep the family and pet(s) together by covering vet costs, or by finding a proper foster for those pets until the family find their feet again.
As I mentioned before, her work is endless and her passion is tireless...THIS while she holds down a career in her crucial position in a large company, also while loving and caring for her own family and also raising many precious fur babies of her own.
Please take a look at and pay much attention to Luckie Street. Show some interest, keep them in mind should you or a friend or loved one may need their services. Check in with them on $5 Friday, chip in a few bucks when a more crucial need arises. Keep them on your radar...you won’t be sorry.

After my two dogs came into a very dangerous situation in my household and it became obvious to give them a chance at a long happy life they needed to find new, safe homes. After weeks of reaching out to everyone I could Christina Graff with Lucky Street said she could help. It is very obvious the dogs wellbeing is their first concern, making sure they are okay while still in my care and after they go to their new homes. One of the dogs went to his perfect home after much work to make sure it was going to be the best fit for him and he seems so happy with his new mom! The other became sick a few weeks later putting both him and I in a very bad situation. Without the financial donation from Lucky Street his hospitalization would have been impossible. They gave these dogs a chance at a really happy life and went above and beyond when it came to ensuring their safety and wellbeing. It is impossible for me to express how grateful I am, thank you so much

My experience with Luckie Street Rescue has been nothing short of wonderful. They have demonstrated to me the highest level of commitment and compassion to my pets as well as abandoned and stray cats and dogs that l have found in need of loving homes. Luckie Street helped me with expenses, getting spayed, neutered and vaccinated . With their help l was able to foster and provide a temp home until the right forever home was found. They are very careful to ensure that these animals do not get in the wrong hands or are ever left abandoned to fend for themselves again. I am most grateful to Luckie St for giving Priscilla, Scooby, Snicker's the new life and forever homes they deserve and all the rest who have benefitted from the kindness and generosity of this rescue. My beautiful Buster my most loving devoted pet fell ill and after much investigation it was discovered that he was ridden with cancer. Luckie St had arranged a wheelchair for him before this heartbreaking and grim prognosis but he would not be here to use it. Christina was with me through this terrible loss, and when Buster took his last breath. I was devastated and had she not been there l would have faced it alone. I hope anyone who is reading this will support this worthy organization to continue to help as the need is great. I am just one person and l have felt the need many times to ask for help and Luckie Street has always been there.
