Mission Statement
Project Pawsitive is the Habitat for Humanity/Extreme Makeover of the animal world. It’s mission is rebuilding, restoring and renovating animal rescues on the brink of collapse and/or closure - free of charge.
Description
The Project Pawsitive Foundation (Project Pawsitive) is a non-profit organization dedicated to keeping deserving animal rescues open and saving animals in desperate need of the second chance they deserve.
Each year, millions of innocent animals are surrendered to struggling animal rescues across the United States. These facilities are busting at the seams and on the verge of collapse and closure due to a down economy and donations that are steadily decreasing as surrenders are drastically increasing.
Even though these amazingly-caring animal rescues are full of selfless volunteers who would give anything for these innocent animals -- loss of donations often lead to failing facilities. Leaking roofs, crumbling foundations, lack of adequate electricity are all symptoms that the majority of rescues in America deal with. And, they are desperate for a solution in order to remain open and able to save animals in need.
Since 2009, Project Pawsitive has helped tens of thousands of homeless animals by restoring, rebuilding, and renovating animal rescue facilities on the brink of collapse or closure. From horse shelters, wildlife centers and wolf rescues to large humane societies, Project Pawsitive’s team of experts, coupled with community volunteers, provide free-of-charge renovations that are many times the saving grace to hundreds of animals in need.
These renovations are only made possible by the help of generous donors and sponsors. Project Pawsitive renovates four to five animal rescues per year and hopes to increase this number with increased support of the public.
