Our Mission

Players for Pits, NFP is an Illinois based 501c3 no-kill rescue committed to saving pit bulls and pit bull mix breed dogs. The rescue was founded in May of 2013 and has grown over the years to include many dedicated volunteers and professional athletes. Everyone involved at Players for Pits is active within the community and works diligently towards helping abused, neglected, and abandoned dogs. As a volunteer based rescue, all funds are reliant upon donations, grants, and sponsorships. Funds are used mostly for medical care for the dogs in our care, as well as training and general care for those that require rehabilitation. Our rescue is run with via the implementation of teams in order to create a cohesive and close knit community amongst our volunteers
