Most of the residents of Sara’s Sanctuary were abused, injured and/or illegally kept. The vast majority of our animals were once so called “pets” and were confiscated by law enforcement officials. Over the years we have rescued thousands of animals and each one has it’s own story; we wish each could tell you each and every story, but that would be impossible. This is just a small peek at some of their stories from what we know.   Please consider sponsoring one of the many wonderful creatures that have come to call this their home.  Your sponsorship would help in so many ways: Fresh food, consistent vet care and keeping each of their individual homes in good repair, weatherproofed and comfortable.

The links on this page will give you a an idea of the many wonderful rescues stories at Sara’s Sanctuary and you can see the pictures of many of our wonderful babies with their friends!

You can help a animal in need, even if you already have a full house. Join our Sponsor an Animal program. For just $25.00 a month, you can contruibute to one of the Sanctuary’s life long residents. This donation will go such a long way towards the feed and medical care for one deserving animal. It also makes a great gift for that special animal lover who has everything.

 It takes approximately $75,000 per year to feed, house, and provide veterinary care for all the animals that we provide a lifeitme home for. Every dollar raised is used strictly for the direct care and maintenance of the animals. Unlike most rescues, Sara’s Sanctuary truly – has NO paid staff, NO paid directors, and NO administrative fees. All those who work at Sara’s Sanctuary do so on a purely voluntary basis. We welcome you to check us out!

Every time a new abused or disabled animal comes into the Sanctuary, we assess its physical injuries and decide if it requires a visit to a veterinarian. This takes away from the normal, non-emergency operating budget. Donations from our caring community make this type of care possible.

Although not all of the animals that come to the sanctuary live long lives, they are all given the best care possible for the length of time they have left. Those who meet and care for them, even if only for a short time, are touched.

The Sanctuary was founded on the belief that “all animals” are worthy of our care. That care means a responsibility for the safety, well-being, and quality of life for all animals.
