In 1994, a group of volunteers got together with the mission of rescuing, caring for, and placing homeless dogs and cats, while educating the public on the importance of spaying and neutering to reduce the number of animals euthanized. Sixteen years later, Second Chance Animal Rescue is still thriving, hosting monthly adoption events, placing animals in foster homes, and working to influence legislation to stop animal suffering. Even without an office, the organization is still growing and accepting contributions of money, pet supplies, and, of course, homes for animals in need.
