My Nonprofit Reviews

I have been a supporter of The Haven for the last 15 years - ever since I moved to Fairhope. I have donated funds, resale items, kennel supplies, and through community event fundraisers.

Why?

Because I was a biweekly volunteer at the headquarters and also at weekend adoption events my first year in Fairhope (before I took a full time job).

I was an eyewitness to the excellent care and leadership from the Executive Director, Board, Staff, (well trained and supervised) volunteers and the City Animal Control Officer. The needs of the animals came first and it showed.

I answered phones and served as receptionist and office assistant as well as a regular dog walker. I saw how well The Haven was managed for not only the animals, but also the potential adopters, the public, supporters (individuals and businesses) and the animal control officer.

I have a good deal of past experience as a volunteer for a variety of non-profits as well as a volunteer coordinator. Some were good experiences others not so much...The Haven was my BEST experience ever. Everyone was committed to the goals and they were lovely (and even fun!) to work with as we did our part.

I believe in their goals and method and recommend them highly for your support by any method.
