Pay it forward and give a rescue animal a healthy start and a forever home, creating a ripple of kindness that lasts far beyond one adoption.
Every animal at Rescue Village deserves a healthy, happy start in their forever home. But did you know that the average cost to care for an animal before adoption at Rescue Village is at least $1,200? That includes medical care, spay/neuter surgery, vaccinations, micro-chipping, food, enrichment, and daily sheltering.
Your Adoption Sponsorship helps cover the adoption cost for families and helps support the essential care of that animal at the shelter.
