How You’ll Make a Difference
Sponsoring through ARF directly impacts the lives of rescue animals in meaningful and tangible ways. Here’s why your sponsorship matters:
Give an animal a new leash on life
Every sponsorship provides an animal with the medical care, nourishment, and love they need before they find their family. Your support is a vital step in ensuring they have a happy and healthy future.
Support a Local, Volunteer-Driven Organization
ARF is a non-profit rescue that relies on community support. Unlike larger organizations, every dollar of your sponsorship goes directly toward the care and well-being of the animals, ensuring they get the best possible start to their new lives.
Sponsoring an animal through ARF is more than just a donation — it’s a life-changing act of kindness.
