Foster with her dog

Welcome, Animal Lovers!

We strive to connect caring adopters with homeless animals that have been surrendered, dumped at high kill shelters, or mistreated.  We offer a shelter free environment and all our pets are placed in safe and caring foster homes until adopted.

                                                        Urgent Property Acquisition Update

 

Dear Spark Rescue Community,

 

We are deeply grateful for your unwavering support—and right now, we need you more than ever. Since June 2024, we lined up a 10%‑down, low‑rate loan with a local bank and identified the perfect property at an affordable price. We submitted our offer and requested a pre‑qualification letter… only to learn that the loan wasn’t available to nonprofits and were passed to a new lender who then went silent. That delay caused our offer to expire, and we’re racing against the clock to make a new one.

 

Why This Property Matters

   •   Expanded Rescue Capacity: A dedicated facility means we can house more rescues on‑site instead of relying solely on private homes.

   •   Sustainable Funding: We plan to launch an on‑site doggy daycare, generating revenue to sustain rescue operations and repay any loan.

   •   Community Hub: A permanent home for adoption events, training classes, and volunteer activities—bringing our supporters even closer to the mission.

 

Our Plan of Action

    1.    Secure Pre‑Qualification: We’re working around the clock—contacting banks, credit unions, lenders, and government programs—to obtain the letter we need to submit a new offer.

    2.    Mobilize Your Pledges: If we gather enough pledges, we can make a full cash offer and close within 45 days!

 

How You Can Help

   •   Pledge Today: Your pledge will only be collected when our offer is accepted.

   •   Legacy Wall Recognition: Pledge $100 or more, and we’ll proudly display your name on our Legacy Wall at the new facility. (All friends who’ve already given $100+ to our Property Fund will be included, too.)

   •   Spread the Word: Share this update with fellow dog‑lovers, local businesses, and community groups who believe in our mission.

 

Timeline & Next Steps

 

With your help, we could finalize this purchase and be operational by July 2025—ready to rescue more dogs and build a lasting legacy of compassion.

 

Time is of the essence. Please consider pledging or donating today to help us secure this home for our furry friends. ❤️🐾
