Rory to the rescue mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and re-home animals who have no safe place to call home.​ Our primary focus is rescuing neonatal kittens who enter shelters or are found as strays. Although they are incredibly cute, they are often only given a few hours for a rescue to step up to save them or they are euthanized due to their dependence on human intervention to survive.

27 years ago, Kathy Asling found an 8-week-old puppy on the street. She immediately called every possible link to the pup's owners and ran an advertisement in her local newspaper. A reporter who saw the ad called Kathy to write a cover story. Although no owner was ever located, she received almost 200 calls to adopt the puppy. She instinctively screened prospective adopters and conducted home visits. Kathy decided on a home but had names and numbers of several families she felt would provide a loving home to a dog. The next day she visited the local shelter and started 'match making' by contacting the people who had called her looking to adopt.

VISIONS OF THE WORLD was started with the mission to raise awareness, change perceptions, educate and support those who need representation. Our current mission are the animals that are losing their habitats and need protecting. While creating the series of fine art photography books LIFE Behind Bars, I realized the importance of the thankless work done by the wild animal sanctuaries and conservations groups to save species and how crucial it is for me to give back and support their efforts to protect and preserve endangered species and their habitats. A portion of the proceeds from book sales and associated merchandise will go to the wildlife conservation institutions that protect and preserve these precious animals. - Julian Starks

The Tiger Frances Foundation believes we can end the abuse and homelessness of all animals by teaching children, and their adults, that animals are sentient, emotional beings, deserving of our empathy and protection.

The Haven at Skanda supports love, hope, and possibilities for rescued farm animals and people, especially children. We take in rescued animals and support them to heal and emerge as who they really are. Because the animals are so beautifully able to leave painful experiences in the past and live in the moment in their full innocence and purity, they become loving role models, showing us what is possible. For this reason, Skanda offers a wide range of programs giving people of all ages and abilities the chance to experience the animals' love and brilliance for themselves, and discover new possibilities. Skanda is dedicated to supporting children who, like the animals, have experienced abuse, neglect, or profound loss, and has developed a trauma-informed, strengths-based anti-bullying curriculum that supports youth with a wide range of life experiences and needs. Skanda provides outreach and education programs throughout the year, and has a robust volunteer program for individuals, families, teams, and groups.

"To Protect the Legacy of Former Racehorses through Education, Reconditioning, Retraining, and Re-homing". Our goal is to prepare our horses for new, adoptive homes. The majority of our horses have recently retired from the track, but we also have received horses from the AZ Dept of Agriculture and from persons who can no longer care for their ex-racehorse. Since these horses were bred for athleticism, heart, and intelligence they are still very athletic and are excelling in other disciplines. They just need a chance to find that second career and a new home … “after the homestretch."

The American Chestnut Foundation has one simple goal: to restore the American chestnut to its native forests. Destroyed by an imported blight many consider the worst environmental disaster of the twentieth century, the American chestnut was virtually eliminated from the eastern hardwood forest between 1904 and 1940. With its loss, wildlife populations plummeted; never to return to former levels. With recent developments in genetics, there is promise that this critically important wildlife food source and timber tree will again become part of our natural heritage. To make this possibility a reality, a group of prominent scientists, in 1983, established the non-profit research-oriented American Chestnut Foundation (TACF). The Foundation's mission is simple: to restore the American chestnut as an integral part of the eastern forest ecosystem. TACF is employing traditional plant breeding techniques, backed by advanced research methods, to develop a blight resistant American chestnut tree. TACF is restoring a species - and in the process, creating a template for restoration of other tree and plant species.
