August: Catskill Animal Sanctuary
Catskill Animal Sanctuary rescues farmed animals, ignites social change to end their exploitation, and champions vegan living.
Catskill Animal Sanctuary is a 150-acre refuge in New York’s Hudson Valley for 11 species of farmed animals rescued from cruelty, neglect and abandonment. Over the years, thousands have come to this place of profound peace. They continue to come — sometimes one needy soul, sometimes a flock of 100 or more at a time. It is our privilege to help each and every rescued animal understand what love feels like. Visit us today.

July: Family of Woodstock
Since 1970, the Family of Woodstock has been an anchor for area residents- a place where people are respectful and caring, and where the search for solutions is creative and tireless. FAMILY’s shelters, emergency food pantries, domestic violence services, court advocates, counseling and case management services, hotlines, and child care supports all work together to help people achieve the changes they seek. Their services are, with few exceptions, free of charge and confidential. Visit us today.
June: Saugerties Animal Shelter
The Saugerties Animal Shelter is a municipal shelter located in Saugerties, New York. We service the towns of Saugerties and Woodstock. Their mission is to help lost, stray and abandoned animals find their owners and furever families. The town of Saugerties maintains the current building, but pet food, veterinary care, and other operations expenses are entirely covered through donations. A nonprofit, called the Saugerties Animal Welfare Fund(SAWF), was also created to help in fundraising for a planned new shelter building. Part of the plans for the new building includes a community room which will host various types of classes and events. The Saugerties Animal Shelter team is particularly excited about this because of all the possibilities it will provide in giving back to the community. Helping animals is no small task, but the Shelter is happily surrounded by many animal lovers, and for they are truly grateful. Visit us today.
