My Nonprofit Reviews

It started when my daughter and her fellow Girl Scout troop peers decided to do a project to help homeless pets. They needed a contact in the industry and reached out to Angels Among Us (AAU) for a mentor. Our volunteer AAU mentor turned us on to the plight of the thousands shelter pets who face euthanasia every day. We did our research, verified the anecdotes she shared, and decided to try to help not only as a troop but as a family. We began fostering dogs with AAU and 2 years and 8 or more fosters later, we are fully and happily invested in this awesome organization! AAU has saved over 16,000 pets thanks to HUNDREDS of volunteers, from fosters to transportation team, intake and approvals team, adoption application processors, vet case team, behavioral and training team, adoption event coordinators, fundraising teams...the list is endless and diverse but they all share a common love for and devotion to rescued pets! I am so proud to be counted among some of the most devoted, creative, committed, selfless and determined souls I have ever met. We push up our sleeves and get dirty all for the payment of a wagging tail, lick on the face, and the satisfaction of finding loving forever homes for equally loving and deserving dogs and cats! As a volunteer, I feel highly supported in executing AAU’s mission, troubleshooting challenges, and in staying respectful of my personal circumstances as they relate to successfully fostering. And not surprisingly we adopted one of our fosters, Ralphie, who keeps us laughing with his goofy antics every day! Volunteer and/adopt with Angels Among Us Pet Rescue! You won’t regret it:)
