Review for Animal Rescue Corps Inc, Washington, DC, USA
Just worked several days with this group during Operation Resolution. They completed 5 rescues in 3 days totaling over 140 animals including dogs, cats, mice and a pig. This is the third time I have volunteered with them and hate that I can't do it more often. They are an amazing group of people that are extremely compassionate about their work saving the neglected and abused animals in this country.
Review for Best Friends Animal Society, Kanab, UT, USA
I was first introduced to Best Friends Animal Society by a friend more then 10 years ago. In lieu of "presents" for Christmas, birthdays etc I sponsor animals at the sanctuary for my family and friends. I have managed to get several of them on board with donations as well. Shortly after Christmas in 2009 my sister and I decided it was time to make the trip to volunteer. We anxiously counted off the days until October 2010. We arrived at the information center on an unusally cold rainy day and were transported to a majical place you can only understand once you are there. We worked every opportunity available and had the most incredible time. We were so amazed that we are returning again this year for another week and bringing our Mom and another friend with us to experience the magic. In our eyes this is the most incredible no-kill sanctuary on the planet.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
I have witnessed the dramatic results accomplished by the vets and care givers when the main focus is the animal's physical & mental health and not how much it costs or the length of time it takes to heal. To follow the improvements of the animals and then to see their ultimate adoptions is fantastic. Not all cases have happy endings but most do.
