NAVS was able to lend assistance within our local community when we provided a grant to One Tail at a Time, a rescue group in Chicago. One Tail at a Time, formed in 2008, rescues animals from overcrowded shelters and works to find them forever homes. They prioritize vulnerable populations of animals for rescue and support, including senior dogs, sick dogs, pit bulls and neonate kittens. Their mission is to end pet homelessness by providing support and resources to pet owners in need and making pet ownership an accessible experience for all. One Tail at a Time took in fifteen beagles that were released from a local medical research laboratory. Due to your generous support, we were able to help in covering the cost of the initial medical care for the beagles, which included spay/neuter procedures, vaccines, prevention medicine and microchips.
