Every Number is An Animal’s Life Saved

Rescue Village measures its success and impact on the community by tracking every caregiving action along each animal’s rescue journey. Rescue Village has taken great strides to build our capacity for care in a thoughtful and purposeful way following the pandemic.

For instance, more emphasis has been put on our Foster Program, meaning that in 2022, 56% of all animals that came to Rescue Village spent time with a volunteer foster family, as compared to 17% pre-pandemic. The animal needs of Geauga and surrounding counties will never go away, and Rescue Village is dedicated to always being there to help. For example, in 2022 the number of dogs needing to be surrendered by their owners more than doubled since ‘21, and we took in 17% more cats in ‘22 than the previous year. With your continued support, we know we can adapt and overcome anything to ensure Rescue Village is an important part of the solution.
