Campaign Details
This is the sad reality at shelters across the country. In this case, nine large dogs sharing one kennel. The shelters are doing their absolute best to save lives, but this is just asking for trouble. This is why we continue to beg for help. Their lives are in danger. They need all of us to do more, to do better.
This is the face of thousands of dogs who sit in shelters across the country. They are shut down, scared, ill or hurt and uncertain of where their future lies. A narrative that plays out far too often.
These dogs sit in a shelter, waiting for their chance to find their own family. The truth is that a lot of animals won’t make it out. Their biggest advocates are the volunteers and staff telling their stories to the public. They love them, and often, the love they give these homeless animals is the only love they will ever know.
They need us, and we are confident that with your help, we can save more...
December 3rd is GivingTuesday. It was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good and help others. GivingTuesday is four days after Black Friday and the day after Cyber Monday. We ask that if at all possible, you try to spend just a tiny bit less on those days, so that you can give a tiny bit to us. That’s all we ask… If we can get enough people to give us a small amount, we can get through this mess. We're pleading for your help... We need to catch a break.
While we are so grateful to our community of supporters for helping us survive this long, we are continuing to struggle and unfortunately moving backwards, in terms of our expenses versus our donations. We don't know how much longer we can sustain this trend, but we can’t stop saving the fur kids. Our work is too important, so we need to get through this somehow.
If you're not in the position to donate, you can also help by sharing our campaign with others you think might want to help too.
Somehow, we always find a way to make it through for the benefit of those precious souls. Sometimes it almost seems impossible and we look back and wonder how we got by. Then we quickly remember, our miracle is you!
Thank you for helping us in honor of GivingTuesday and in the spirit of the holidays…
Spark Rescue Santa Barbara
About the Organization
Spark Rescue Santa Barbara is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) non-profit charity animal rescue organization, founded in February 2014, in Santa Barbara, CA. We are a foster based rescue that relies on people opening their home and hearts to saving animals in need. We believe a dog or cat will do far better adjusting when they are part of a family than to be cared for in a noisy kennel surrounded by sick and barking dogs.
