January 2012 Rescues

The first week of 2012 has been very busy.  FODA has commitments for 66 animals in the first 2 weeks of January.  Our goal is to rescue 50 animals per month from DeKalb Animal Services but we may actually break our monthly record for any month since our inception in July of 2010.  It costs $175 to vet and transport each animal to safety in our approved northeast rescue groups.  We are in dire need of donations to fund all of the animals that we have commitments to this month.  Click the photo below to see all the animals that need sponsorship for January 2012!

Give a Little – Save a Life Holiday Giving Challenge!

Since the beginning we’ve asked our supporters and community to give a little and save a life.  This holiday season we’re challenging everyone to share our mission and show how powerful small donations can be.  Our goal is to get 2,000 people to donate $1 a week.  It’s a lot of people, but we are just asking for ONE dollar.  That’s it.  If we meet our goal the majority of our sponsorship needs will be covered 2012.  $1 for 52 weeks could save the lives of 600 animals next year.  Can you find it in your heart to subscribe to a weekly donation that will change the lives of so many companion animals in need?

To donate, visit our “How to Donate” page, go to the weekly donation option, pick $1 a week (or more if you’re feeling especially generous), click subscribe and it will take you to paypal to get it set up (or subscribe below).  That $1 will come to FODA automatically (as long as you don’t change the credit card #, or cancel the payment) every week and we can continue saving lives thanks to your generosity.  We will keep you posted on how close we come to our goal.  Below is a fundraising thermometer showing how much is pledged in donations per week.  We hope that it will hit 2,000 or more!  Let’s do this!

Select the weekly amount below and just hit subscribe!

Thank You All For a Lifesaving Year in 2011

Friends of DeKalb Animals would like to thank all of our supportors and friends for helping us to save over 600 animals from DeKalb Animal Services betweek January and December of 2011.  Without your donations and your dilligence is telling others about our mission, surely many of these animals would not have made it out of the shelter alive.  We would also like to thank the wonderful receiving rescues that we work with in the Northeast for rescuing and finding homes for all of these great companion animals.  FODA was even able to raise the funds to save Lucas and Max from DeKalb this year with the help of Maxfund Rescue in Colorado, Pet Airways, Carmen in Atlanta, Stephanie in Colorado and many local donors.  You can check out their Facebook page at Lucas and Max: The adventures of 2 rescue dogs. 

We are hopeful that 2012 is going to be a our best year yet for saving the animals from DeKalb…Please continue to share our mission with your friends and family.  If you haven’t FRIENDED us on Facebook yet, please do.  That is the easiest way to keep up with our events and the happy tails of the animals from DeKalb when they are adopted into forever homes.  

FODA would like to wish all of our supporters the happiest of Holidays and health, prosperity and happiness in the upcoming year!  You make the difference between life and death for these animals and for that, we cannot thank you enough.
