WHO
IS ANIMAL GUARDIANS OF BREVARD?
|
|
|
Animal Guardians of
Brevard,
Inc. exists “for the love of animals.”
We are an all-volunteer non-profit 501(c)3 corporation whose
purpose is to aid homeless and abandoned companion animals.
Our goals are to:
|
-
Promote responsible pet guardianship through education
and counseling,
-
Increase public awareness of companion animal
overpopulation and promote the spaying and neutering of every one
-
Enlist community support in providing goods and
services to help meet the needs of homeless animals
-
Assist needy pet guardians, when possible, to
sterilize, care for, and keep their pets
-
Provide assistance to local animal shelters to improve
adoption rates and end the euthanasia of thousands of healthy,
adoptable animals.
-
To improve the well-being of all homeless, neglected,
abandoned, and unwanted animals, and to work toward a day when there
will be No More Homeless Pets.

Formation of Animal
Guardians of Brevard was born out of a frustrated desire to see the plight of
homeless animals improve. For a variety
of reasons, there
are far more companion animals arriving at shelters than there are good
homes for them. Consequently,
huge numbers (about 10,000 locally, 6,000,000 nationally) of healthy,
well-tempered cats and dogs are euthanized - killed - every year.
Animal Guardians of Brevard thinks that needs to change now.
|
|
Since we were formed in 2002, we have helped several
hundred animals find homes. We have
arranged and funded sterilization of hundreds
of cats and dogs who otherwise would have remained
intact to breed and create more babies and more misery.
We have also facilitated the transfer of hundreds
more animals slated for euthanasia from the shelter to rescue
organizations. In addition, we collect food and other donations for the animals, and
distribute educational literature. |
|
We have set up adoption events for many area shelters and rescue groups
but we are especially involved with helping our local shelter, the
South Animal Care and Adoption Center (SACC). We arrange or assist with adoptions, special events,
building improvements, education, animal care, and general support.
We offer financial assistance for people to sterilize their pets
at stationary clinics and have recently begun offering mobile spaying
and neutering to bring these badly needed services to the communities where they are
most needed. |
 |
|
Animal Guardians of Brevard believes that every animal’s life is
valuable, and every one born deserves the chance to have a safe and
loving lifetime home. We are entirely dependant upon volunteers and donations to
fund everything we do, and all donations go toward local
programs.
