Your donations matter more than ever before.
At the start of July, we unexpectedly received FIFTEEN cases of animals in dire need of our help — all in one week. These emergency requests required us to find boarding or foster immediately for the victims’ pets in order for the person to go into a safe house or the hospital. All of these rescues were due to domestic abuse or sexual assault.
One woman could not hold back her emotions:
“Thank you. I can't stop crying. Thank you so much. I couldn't leave my dogs behind, but I had to protect myself and the kids. Thank you for saving me from that impossible choice during the worst time I've ever been though. Thank you."
Already in the first 6 months of 2024, over 342 clients have received help through Ruthless Kindness. That’s already MORE than half of the total number of clients helped in 2023.
I wish you could witness the tears of joy from those who benefit from your support. You also give us immense relief and a feeling of gratitude to be able to say YES to the people who come to us with nowhere else to turn.
Our growth is amazing, but it means we need more medical supplies, pet food, and provisions for foster homes. We also need to keep up with repairs and maintenance for our mobile clinic — the vehicle that we take to every outreach event and emergency call.
Last year, we drove 7,238 miles. I don’t know what we would do if our emergency vehicle broke down!
We are asking for your support to raise $10,000 to cover necessities urgently needed right now.
So many people are in desperate situations. Yet they find hope in their future, thanks to you. You make it possible for Ruthless Kindness to be there for people with pets who otherwise have nowhere to turn.
