A Lifeline for the Forgotten: Your Gift Could Secure a Forever Sanctuary – And If You Step Forward to Purchase It, We’ll Name It After You

Goleta, CA – January 15, 2026 – Picture this: a frightened senior dog finally wagging his tail without fear, a once-abandoned kitten learning to trust again, hundreds of rescued animals roaming freely in a peaceful haven where they are guaranteed safety and love for the rest of their lives. This isn’t a dream—it’s the future Spark Rescue Santa Barbara is fighting to build, and your support can make it real. Please pick on this link to see the property

After more than a decade of all-volunteer dedication saving hundreds of lives every year through our foster-based model, we have received permission from the owners of a breathtaking 2.15-acre farmstead at 10800 Calle Real, Goleta, to share our vision of transforming this property into a permanent, no-kill sanctuary. Set in Goleta’s countryside, this rare treasure features two separate homes, an avocado orchard, vast open land for animals to play and heal, and a spacious 30x40 workshop ready for any need.

This is destiny waiting to unfold. As a 100% no-kill organization founded in 2014, we already provide life-saving veterinary care, rehabilitation, and loving placements. But many special-needs animals wait longer for their perfect match. This sanctuary will be their forever home—a family-like paradise where they thrive, socialize, and live joyfully without ever facing uncertainty again. It will empower us to rescue even more dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, and potentially farm animals across Santa Barbara County and beyond.

The asking price is $2,499,000, and time is critical—the property is actively on the market. As a community-supported nonprofit, we depend on generous hearts like yours. Every donation changes a life: a warm bed for a weary pup, urgent medical care for a scared kitten, or space for an animal who’s known only hardship.

Your gift creates hope reborn—the wag of a tail at peace, the purr of renewed trust, the certainty that, because of you, every animal in our care is forever safe and loved.

Extraordinary Legacy Opportunity: Every donor contributing $100 or more will be proudly included on our legacy wall at the sanctuary—a beautiful, lasting tribute to your compassion. And for those inspired to make an extraordinary, life-altering impact: If you would like to purchase this property for Spark Rescue and create a living legacy, we will name the entire sanctuary after you. Imagine “The [Your Name] Animal Haven”—a timeless tribute where generations of rescued animals will thrive, and your name will inspire hope forever. This is your chance to etch your kindness into the heart of our community and ensure countless lives are saved.

Donations are fully tax-deductible.
