Happy Spring to our Dearest ARF Supporters & Adopters!
We are reaching out to you hoping once again that you can help us keep assisting homeless cats and dogs find their forever homes.
ARF has many long-term fosters still looking for their forever families. Nimbus the cat is 4 years old and has been searching for the right adopter since June 2025. He is a sweet and loving boy but needs to be an only pet. Our trio of dogs, Oreo, Athena and Happy have been overlooked for months. All seniors, who need a second chance.
Last year, our donations increased slightly, while other income is continuing to drop and our costs continue to rise. And, last year, many of you stepped up to the challenge issued by one of ARF’s benefactors who agreed to match donations of $500.00 or more and we met the $33,000.00 goal. Thank You so much!
Unfortunately, we still have a deficit which we are trying to eliminate so we can begin rebuilding our reserves. Our benefactor will again match all donations over $500.00 this year (up to $33,000.00) which is a tremendous help, although alone will not allow us to fully erase our debt.
Won’t you help by contributing any amount you can afford? Better yet, do you know Friends, Family, Business Associates or anyone else who may be in a position to help? ARF can even contact them directly if you’d like.
Donations can be made by check sent to Animal Rescue Force, Inc., PO Box 418, East Brunswick, NJ 08816; or, you can use a credit card by going to our website, www.animalrescueforceinc.com and clicking on the GiveDirect link; or you can use PayPal by using the email arforce3@aol.com.
Thank you in advance for your continued support and kindness towards animals.
Sincerely,
Susan Ragland
President
