VNLL Kennel Fundraising Campaign
Our Plan for the New Year and a New Beginning...
Please help us spread the word and Donate if you can!
VNLL is a 501(c)3 Non-Profit Pet Rescue based in Adams County PA. We are working towards a county where the shelter and rescues can work together to create a safe and helpful county for our animals to thrive in. We have recently been given the opportunity of a lifetime to take on an existing boarding facility with PLENTY of room to grow! This of course comes at a price but awards us the opportunity to establish a rescue facility which is able to almost completely fund itself! This is where we NEED YOUR HELP to get this ball rolling! We will start off the new year with our VNLL Kennel Fundraising Campaign to work towards our goal of providing a safe haven to the “less-adoptable” dogs and cats in need while we work hard at finding them a place to call home!
The property in question is a very private 20-acre property in Adams County which already has a kennel capable of housing many adoptable dogs while continuing the existing boarding/grooming business PLUS has more buildings which could easily be finished to house even more! In our county now our little rescue network is able to house as many in need dogs as our small local shelter and we BOTH still have to turn away animals every week! This leaves few options for many who could really use our help!!! Our neighboring counties also lack space if they have any at all to house the needy. This means that the overburdened areas are forced with a tough decision... turn them away or to euthanize to keep space for the adoptable. It is not a decision that is not to be taken lightly. We choose to turn away but pray that someday we will have the ability to bring them in! THIS IS THAT OPPORTUNITY and WE CAN’T DO IT ALONE!
With every dollar donated we can get closer to our goal and we can work toward making Adams County a safe place for our four-legged friends! We want to work with local Trap Neuter Return programs to create a safe county for our feral cats so that they can stay away from the shelters while promoting our counties already established Spay/Neuter programs to keep the pet population down! We want to provide assistance to pets in need by donating food and supplies to keep beloved pets in their homes through hardships. We will work towards increasing the availability of our microchipping programs and creating a central web page for the Lost and Found to get the lost home quickly! We will work hard to educate the public on how they can work with us to help put an end to local pet overpopulation and give them access to resources to help them become better and more responsible pet owners! And give those in desperate need a place to advertise their pets in need to move them from one home to another quickly while keeping them out of our shelters! With all of these options on the table we believe that our goals are very reachable with your help! TAX DEDUCTIBLE DONATIONS can be made via the donation link on our website at AdoptBestFriends.com or by mail to VNLL Rescue PO Box 3336 Gettysburg PA 17325 * (either way use Kennel Fund in the Memo).
If you have any questions or would like more detailed information on this plan and it’s goals please call Stephanie Gilbert-Baum at 717-752-5698 or reach out via email to stephanie@vnllrescue.com We look very forward to working within our community toward making our county a safe place for pets and pet lovers alike!
“Saving one dog may not change the world… But for that one dog, the world changes forever”
*If we are unable to reach our ultimate goals we will attempt to receive financing for the difference. If we cannot obtain this funding, any money donated will be used toward expanding our housing options unless you have requested a refund of your donation.
