The nonprofit has an opportunity to tell the story of how the organization adapted to tremendous external changes in the last year.

While originally planning to only rescue and provide a forever home to mini pigs (pigs under 400 lbs), we became aware of two farm hogs that needed rescuing. Each of these hogs will grow to roughly 800lbs in size. We mobilized our fundraising efforts to obtain monies to construct a large fencing / shelter area that can properly house two farm-sized pigs.
