Mission Statement
To offer refuge, nourishment and medical attention to injured, abandoned and abused animals, and to ensure that, whenever possible, they are placed into safe, loving, forever homes.
About This Cause
In 2004, founder and volunteer director Colleen O’Shaughnessy gathered a few animal lovers in the St. Croix area and started a small-scale animal rescue effort. As the needs of the county grew, a decision was made to form Gregory’s Gift of Hope, a 501c3 organization. Through the years we have evolved into a fully operational no-kill rescue/rehome organization that takes in abandoned, homeless, injured, abused and discarded animals, and works tirelessly to find new, permanent homes for them. With almost 2 decades of service we have saved thousands of animals and given them “hope”, and that is what each deserved. Along with rescue and rehoming (adoption) services, We have a sanctuary program Ie in place with dedicated space for p our special rescues that are in need of this type of care,. Thus us for animals who may not be eligible for re-homing due to age or medical issues. Additionally, Gregory’s promotes spay/neuter programs to assist with pet overpopulation. Gregory’s stands apart from other rescue organization in that it always makes room when animals may be injured, are in threat of euthanasia or have been abandoned. At any given time, Gregory’s has as maynas 250 kittens and cans and can accommodate, if needed, up to 25 dogs at the New Richmond rescue facility. GGOH currently has 8 sanctuary dogs in our care. We’ve rescued many types of animals through the years, but we only put dogs and cats up for adoption to the general public. As for breeds, we are not breed-specific, although we have seen a large increase in the number of pitbulls in the past few years as many other rescue organizations tend to refuse them. Gregory’s Gift of Hope holds the distinction of being the only onsite, fully operational rescue facility in St. Croix County and its surrounding communities. When you are ready to adopt and visit us, all of our rescue animals are right here for you to meet. Additionally, all of our cats are free-roaming in cat rooms so that they are also highly socialized animals, making the transition into multi-pet homes much smoother and less stressful. Gregory’s Gift of Hope is operated in full by volunteers. We have operational hours for our volunteers in two four-hour shifts, one in the morning and one in the evening. Additionally, we are unique in that Gregory’s founder lives on the property where our facility is located, so there is 24-hour monitoring of our facility and our rescue animals, Many of our special cases require frequent assessments and changes in care, having someone on site allows us to give the utmost care to our rescue family. Gregory’s Gift of Hope relies on the generosity of the general public, community businesses, fundraising events and grants. GGOH continually campaigns to have people become Monthly sponsors, do employee matches where available at their places of employment and community placement of our GGOH Donation Jars. We are in constant need of funds and are always looking for new ways to raise them. It currently costs about $750.00 per day to operate the facility providing top notch care to all of the GGOH rescue animals.
