Why?
St. Francis Animal Rescue rescues
over 500 dogs and cats each year. Many of these animals have
been scheduled to be euthanized, not because they have done anything
wrong, but because they were abused, abandoned or left homeless by
their former owners and now have no place to go. St. Francis takes
these animals in, provides medical care and places them in a foster
home where they get lots of TLC. When they are ready for a permanent
home we adopt them out to the perfect family who will give them all
the love and attention they deserve.
The pledges you collect for the
Walk help us take care of these homeless animals and provide for
their needs until we find that "perfect" family.
