Ted Koran hasn't added a story.
In 2012 I was severly injured in an auto
accident. My wife was diagnosed with ovarian cancer earlier that year.
For 25 years my wife, Karen and I rescued over 1,000 animals. It took
more than $275,000 to rescue these animals. Out of our own pockets.
And a 24/7/365 day a year commitment for 25 years.
In late 2014 Karen passed away from her cancer. The recession,
my injuries, Kare's cancer and her death took its toll on me. With 50
animals to csare for Karen's dying wish was that I don't give up the
sanctuary. I haven't broken that promise. My disability has made it
difficult but I am managing. Our sanctuary became non profit in 2012.
We could no longer fund it ourselves. Even then donations covered 25%
of costs for the animals. Between my unemployment and our savings we
survived and were able to care for the animals. After Karen's passing
I went on disability. A real challange to provide for the animals on a
disability pay check. The sanctuary has great followers and most of
the costs are from caring donors. But sometimes costs do come out of
pocket from my disability income.
I started making things out of PVC. On the ground in my
driveway. I made a few rolling chicken coops and they sold quickly.
Many requests have come in for the coops and for the KittyKat Tower
Beds. But I need an enclosed handicap work shop. I need to suppliment
my disability income to make sure I can financially provide for the
animals. 100% of profits will go towards the sanctuary and the animals
care. Investors who are willing to give a small interest loan on a 5
year contract would be appreciated. Possibly a 5 year return in the
way of a percentage of profits. Please visit my sancuary page and the
several programs run by my sanctuary. And go through my personal
profile back to 2008.
