Melanie - Thank you for the monetary donation

Nina - Thank you for the monetary donation and the wonderful letters of encouragement.

Ivan & Dee we want to thank you so much for taking care of the (5) kittens that lost their Mommy and allowing us to take them in at our rescue. Also for all of the cat food, the carrier, sleeping cage and the generous donation to help care for them. They were very lucky you were there to care for them when they needed it.

Thank you Carol for all your encouragement and kind words when we need them the most.

We want to thank Nicole Weis & Ben DeVries with the Council Bluffs, Iowa Daily Nonpareil Newspaper for the wonderful article and great pictures they provided for our rescue.

We want to thank all the volunteers at our rescue. Our volunteers come out and groom our dogs and horses and give much appreciated love and attention to our animals.

We want to thank Terry for bringing his tractor out and grading our horses area when our tractor was out for repairs.

We want to send a very special Thank You to Dianne Smith who owns Graphic Design by Dianne. Dianne has donated her services to provide us with a wonderful and informative website about our rescue. This would have been an expense that our rescue could not have made at this time. Because of this service that was provided by Dianne we are about to take the money she saved us and put up extra fencing for our horse quarantine area. This will allow us to save many more horses then we previously thought. We will never be able to thank Dianne enough for the services provided to us for our rescue.

Mary Waggoner, Genea’s mother, contributes daily to the rescue. Keep in mind that she is 80 years old and can out work anyone here. She lives in a home on the property and spends her days working right along with my husband and me with all of the animals. She spoils them each day and spends special time with those animals that need extra attention and love. She has always been right there to help when we need an extra hand. From cleaning stalls to grooming the animals we can always count on her help. Thank you Mom, for being there for all of our animals and giving them so much attention and love. Currently she is learning to drive the tractor to help out with the fields.

A Cut Above Tree Service has offered to cut down and haul away several trees on the rescue’s property. Also, they provided a large bag of dog food for our rescued dogs. We want to Thank A Cut Above Tree Service for the services provided and also the dog food.

Office Max provided our business cards for our rescue. They worked very hard with us to get the design that we wanted on our cards. We want to thank them as these cards allow us to promote our rescue each and everyday.

Eddy’s in Glenwood has allowed the rescue to set up a donation jar at their store. We have received many phone calls regarding our rescue because of this. Also, the money we collect each week is put toward the animals care and this is a huge help. The Manager at Eddie’s shared a wonderful story with us about a couple from Kansas that came in and were reading the information on our jar. They were working at the Power Plant in Glenwood and they stopped at Eddie’s to get gas on their way back home to Kansas. They had $8.00 in change coming back from their gas purchase. They told the manager to put the $8.00 in our jar as a donation to help our rescue. $8.00 buys a bag of horse feed and that is what it was spent on. We want to thank them, for their kindness.

Michelle Hall, a good friend of ours, has contributed several things to our rescue. The most important is her positive attitude and her encouragement along the way. Michelle has a great love for all animals. Thank you for everything Michelle.

Connie C. - Thank you Connie for your donation of Dog & Horse Treats. Also, for spending time with our rescued horses giving them a lot of love and attention and for all your up lifting e-mails.

KMA Radio Station - Thank you for the radio spot allowing us to share our mission with community about our rescue facility
