My Nonprofit Reviews

My name is Susan Martell and I am a longtime volunteer with the South Florida SPCA who also serves as the Community Outreach/ Educational Coordinator for the organization. I cannot say enough about this amazing organization and what they do to help save the lives of animals in need. I have never seen a more loving, caring and giving group of staff, board members and volunteers who always put the needs of the animals before their own. The SFSPCA rescues, rehabilitates and re-homes these animals giving them a second chance at life. I have just adopted my second off-track thoroughbred rescue. The first was found starving to death and would not have survived much longer without the care she received. I gave her an amazing home for 9 years and lost her in 2022. She had just turned 24 going on 14. After this devastating loss I knew in time, another rescue would come in to the SFSPCA that also needed me. This mare was rescued before going to slaughter from the track. She was only 4! The SFSPCA took care of several health of her health needs and put her in training. I adopted her in November and it was just one more success story to add to the long list of lives saved and second chances given. As a volunteer who conducts orientation classes for new volunteers, I cannot say enough about the loving and caring volunteers who donate their time to build trust and show love to all of the rescued animals. This organization means the world to me. I will be eternally grateful to them for rescuing two very special horses in my life and countless other animals. The South Florida SPCA is just absolutely incredible! Pictures are my 2 rescues. The first is when she was first rescued. I lost her unexpectedly and the second is living her best life with me currently thanks to the rescue efforts of this organization.

I have volunteered with this amazing organization for 6 years. The work done here to help abused, neglected and abandoned horses and animals is nothing short of miraculous! My heart and soul are with the SFSPCA and their rescues. I adopted my own rescue who was days from death eating garbage from a dumpster. The SFSPCA saved her life and countless others! I am grateful for this organization every day! Thank you South Florida SPCA!
