Crosskennan Lane Animal Sanctuary, nestled close to Antrim in Northern Ireland, has been a beacon of hope and compassion for animals in need since 1996. Our dedicated team of volunteers tirelessly works towards the rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming of a diverse range of animals, including horses, dogs, cats, birds, small animals, and farm animals. While our mission is to provide a safe haven and promote animal welfare education, the ongoing costs of caring for over 100 animals daily are substantial, exceeding 20 thousand monthly. We urgently appeal for your support in 2024 to ensure the continued success of our sanctuary.
Monthly Expenses and Ongoing Efforts:
Despite welcoming new members, ongoing projects, and grant applications, we still need regular support to cover the costs of animal care, rehabilitation, and providing a lifelong home for animals that may not be suitable for rehoming. The sanctuary is not just a rescue; it's a lifelong commitment to animals, and that commitment comes with lifelong costs.
Ways to Support:
Regular Donations: Consider signing up for a regular donation to provide stable financial support.
Sponsorship Opportunities: Individuals or groups can sponsor specific needs like hay bales, shavings, cat litter, dog food, horse feed, and more.
Stable Sponsorship: Form a group to sponsor a stable, ensuring a roof over the animals' heads and supporting their long-term care.
Community Involvement: Run collections, set up charity events, sports matches, or fashion shows in your local area or workplace. We're here to assist in getting started.
Business Contributions: If you own a business, consider running competitions, raffles, or auctions to raise funds. We offer shout-outs, acknowledgments, and opportunities for team-building or community days.
Volunteer Opportunities:
Our dedicated volunteers often wear multiple hats, contributing to animal care, rescue work, administration, fundraising, outreach, and education. If you can spare even a small amount of time, your assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Crosskennan Lane Animal Sanctuary stands as a testament to the power of compassion and community. Our mission extends beyond rescue to rehabilitation, education, and lifelong care. In 2024, we call on you to join us in ensuring a secure future for every animal in our care. Your support, whether financial or through other means, makes a significant impact on the lives of those who cannot speak for themselves. Together, let's continue to be a voice for the voiceless and provide a haven for those in need.
