Review for Harmony Fund Inc, Holden, MA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

As an independent animal rescuer in Thailand for over 30 years, I never received any support for cows or buffalo. When I ran out of life savings in 2009 I took animal welfare to the streets and night markets of Chiang Mai. With the help of students we were able to collect enough funds nightly to cover the next day's expenses for the 30 cows/buffalo at Love Animal Sanctuary/Holy Cow Farm.
However after 4 years of walking around town talking to hundred's of people, from 9 pm to 2 pm every night without fail, then home to count hundreds of coins ready for the morning market was, to say it mildly, a gruelling task. In 2012 at age 62, I ran out of steam!
I called every elephant camp in the area to ask for grass or bananas but none were sympathic towards starving cows. Although I knew Lek from Elephant Nature Park, it was not appropriate for me to ask her as she herself was looking for funds for her project at that early time of development.
Then a miracle happened. On Care2 site, I got to know an angel named Laura Simpson
from Harmony Fund USA.
Once she heard my story she jumped into immediate action.
Within a short time food arrived and it has never stopped arriving.
I had written to many worldwide animal organisations in the past,
I had received for wildlife but no one cared for farm animals back then.

Harmony Fund cares for the underdog, like myself who didn't have funds to set up
a proper organization as every cent I got went to animals.
Running an organization takes time and money away from the animals.
Harmony Fund is an organization I will trust for life,
I mean just look at this closely; low admin/volunteer work:
Laura Simpson dedicates her whole life in a
One Woman Mission to save 0ver a million animals worldwide!
Check www.harmonyfund.org Laura has her feet in countries all around the globe.
She is sent by Heavenly Order I know in my heart.
I wish her a billion dollars and a long healthy life.
Joy she already has, knowing so many animals everywhere are being cared for
through her daily actions for animals.

So Mote It Be!

Review for Harmony Fund Inc, Holden, MA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Harmony Fund has supported my project in Thailand for over 10 years.
Although there are few donations for cows, somehow Harmony Fund
always manages to pull us through the challenges we are faced with.
Survival of our animals would have been impossible without their help.
This non profit goes above and beyond their call of duty.
Gratitude and love is what I have for Harmony Fund.

Rating: 5 stars  

After 20 years of rescuing animals in Thailand, domestic, wild and farm, I ran out of money in 2012. As soon as Harmony Fund heard my story they started to support and it has been continuous since then. Even though they do not receive donations for farm animals, they manage to send funds to sustain our Holy Cow Farm. Harmony Fund get requests from all around the world to help, mainly cats & dogs in dire situations and always they find a way to help those animals. I'm amazed at the compassion HF shows for the underdog, people who have lost all hope to save their rescued animals. My farm animals would have starved to death had it not been for this wonderful organization who continues to help despite the hardship in doing so. This is by far the most compassionate foundation on this planet which not only saved my animals but restored my faith in humanity. There are not enough stars to rate Harmony Fund.
