UPDATE:
Gentle Acres Animal Haven, a sanctuary dedicated to caring for abused animals, has recently faced challenges staying open, but community support has poured in since the story about the haven aired on Monday. So far, it has raised an additional $10,000 toward its $50,000 fundraising goal!
Wittlinger expressed gratitude for the outpouring of support. The donations are crucial in helping keep the sanctuary operational and continuing its mission.
Be kind to every kind, that was Jeanine Wittlinger’s motto when she started her sanctuary for abused and neglected animals. Now she needs your help to help them. Photojournalist Greg Moore has the story here:
Wittlinger says if she does not get the funds she needs, she may have to close the sanctuary by the end of March. You can help out here.
As of 2:30 p.m. Thursday Jan. 8 the GoFundMe has raised over $19,000.
