Cat Town's mission is to transform the approach to saving shelter cats, reducing euthanasia nationwide. Our focus is to find great homes for cats who are considered unadoptable in the traditional rescue model.While most rescue organizations support their local shelter by focusing on confident cats who are easily adopted, Cat Town focuses on the elderly, under-socialized, stressed, and sick or injured cats who would otherwise be killed. The Cat Town model proves these cats are highly adoptable, and has helped reduce the euthanasia rate at Oakland Animal Services, Oakland’s municipal shelter, by over 70% since 2011.

Carolina Equine Rescue and Assistance (CERA) is a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to saving horses from abuse neglect, and slaughter. We rescue with the intent to rehabilitate, retrain and re-home through our adoption process. Horses who are not adoptable will receive high-quality care and call CERA their forever home. We believe that education is the foundation in order to decrease the unwanted horse population. CERA offers educational classes in equine ownership and management taught by qualified clinicians. We are also actively involved in the pre-veterinarian program offered through Wingate University. Select students are given the opportunity to receive hands-on experience by working with our veterinarians, farriers and assisting with daily care of our horses.

Apollo Support & Rescue is an organization that rescues animals that are in need from being abandoned, abused, or left in local shelters. We promote spay and neutering programs and educate the public on the benefits of saving a life through adoption instead of promoting buying a pet. We hold local adoption events to display healthy rescues animals that are ready to find forever homes. We place animals in suitable, safe homes. We also provide financial assistance to pet owners unable to help keep their pet due to financial hardships. We provide food, pet deposits, and temporary care. We try to help assist with pets that are surrendered and prevent them from being taken to local shelters.

Lead and inspire by connecting people and wildlife

Last Chance for Animals (LCA) recognizes that animals have the ability to experience pain, and as such they deserve certain basic rights protecting them from pain caused by humans. LCA believes that non-human animals should not be subjected to suffering and exploitation by humans because alternatives exist for nearly every traditional "usage" of animals. LCA opposes the use of animals for scientific curiosity, entertainment, clothing, and food. LCA recognizes the use of non-human animals in medical experimentation as both immoral and of questionable scientific validity due to the tremendous biological difference between species. LCA's work advocates conscious and informed lifestyle decisions, and the organization is committed to disseminating truthful information about societal animal abuse to improve the treatment of animals.
