Animal Sanctuary Assistance Program (ASAP) Helps After Hurricane Helene

When Hurricane Helene hit North Carolina in late September 2024, Brother Wolf Animal Rescue lost its shelter in the floodwaters, along with all of its physical assets, putting the lives of hundreds of animals in jeopardy. Thanks to your support of NAVS, we issued Brother Wolf a generous grant through the Animal Sanctuary Assistance Program for recovery assistance, including the purchase of medical and care supplies as they worked to rebuild.

The rescue never wavered in its plan to rebuild and continue their lifesaving work in the region. In the direct aftermath of the storm, the group served pets whose families could not afford veterinary care and helped more than 1,000 animals. Recently, they were able to move into their temporary facility and start receiving new animals. Here are pictures of the first dog and cat they welcomed into their care! Our grant funding will also help them outfit their medical team with supplies to help animals in this facility.

Your generous donations to NAVS help us give sanctuaries the resources they need to respond to and recover from disaster. With your continued support, we ensure that animals have loving, caring homes that support their needs.
