Mission Statement
Animal Rescue Fund, Inc. is a privately-funded, non-profit, 501(c)(3) charitable organization incorporated in the State of Ohio in February 1980. We operate a no-kill shelter for homeless animals called “The Farm” on 17 acres in Amelia. Our operation has full and part time staff members and volunteers. The shelter provides for the health, safety, and happiness of all our animals.
About This Cause
We play an active and important role in serving the community in several ways. Rescue and Adoption Program – We receive numerous calls from residents and law enforcement reporting stray, abused, and/or neglected dogs, cats or other animals. We rescue these animals and provide them with food, care and shelter until their owners or loving forever homes are found. We also take animals from county shelters when they are scheduled to be euthanized or the shelters are full, and gives them a chance to find someone who will make them an important part of their family. In 2011 alone, we fielded 13,000 phone calls and found homes for over 700 animals! Community Assistance – Animal Rescue Fund helps with food and shelter and offers other assistance to underprivileged people in the community so they can keep their pets in their home and do not have to surrender them. Spay/Neuter Program – We also identify disadvantaged individuals in Clermont and surrounding counties who are unable or unwilling to pay for the costs associated with sterilization of their pets and offer to help with veterinary care and transportation to get the animals spayed/neutered to prevent more homeless animals. Feral Cat Program – Animal Rescue Fund also operates a catch-spay/neuter-release program for feral cats to help stop the rapidly growing problem of reproducing feral cats. For example, we helped with a cat hoarding situation where a farm had been overtaken by over 300 cats and kittens. Our staff nursed many of these kittens and cats back to good health, got them spayed or neutered, and found them loving homes. Community Education – To help reduce the number of homeless animals, we participate in community outreach programs and events to educate the public about the homeless animal epidemic and the importance of spaying, neutering and vaccinating pets. We provide shelter, food and care for all kinds of homeless animals, including puppies, kittens, dogs, cats, ducks, deer, horses, chickens, and goats. Through our adoption program, we try to find safe, loving forever homes for the puppies, kittens, cats and dogs. We also provide a sanctuary for other animals, such as horses, goats and deer, to live out the rest of their lives in a safe and caring environment.
