helping our furry friends!
Thank you for visiting www.RUFFrescue.org RESCUING UNWANTED FURRY FRIENDS.
RUFF Is a non-profit 501(c) (3) organization run by volunteers. RUFF is dedicated to saving the lives of abandoned, unwanted or displaced animals, from the brink of euthanasia at Southern California "KILL" shelters. We pay adoption fees and medical assistance for these pets, many of which are "special needs".
This year in particular less money is being donated due to the state of our economy. But there are many more pets at kill shelters due to those same conditions including home foreclosures, loss of jobs, and natural disasters.
If you have ever been lucky enough to have a pet in your life, you understand the meaning of unconditional love. RUFF depends solely on the generosity and kindness of our donors. If you believe in our mission, please consider a tax-deductible donation so we can keep on doing our best at saving the lives of these needy animals.
To help feed the animals in animal shelters, please go to the following websites everyday:

RUFF NEEDS YOUR CHANGE
The economy has hit people hard. No news there but it means it is tougher for many folks to help their pets medically or to even keep them. Some weeks RUFF is lucky to receive 50 dollars in donations! If everyone reading this were to put a quarter or two quarters a day in a container on their dresser, in one year you would have between 90-180 dollars to donate and could take it off your taxes! That would help one or two pets. To every pet, it means a chance to live a better life. Please consider saving your change for those animals that need our help, everyday of the year. It will lighten up your pockets and purses for a good cause. We want to thank those who have done garage sales, lemonade stands, and recycled for our group.
