Atlanta Animal Rescue Friends

At Atlanta Animal Rescue Friends (AARF), we're all about creating a community where every pet matters. Our mission is to promote informed, responsible, and humane companion animal ownership. We believe that no healthy adoptable animal should be euthanized, and we're committed to eliminating animal homelessness. Our ultimate goal? Achieving total sterilization of all companion animals.

Since our humble beginnings in 2002, AARF has steadily grown and made a significant impact. We've built an incredible team of animal advocates who serve on our executive and advisory board. We've also established a network of foster homes, ensuring that every pet in our care receives the love and attention they deserve.

But we didn't stop there. We realized that rescue and adoption alone wouldn't solve the problem of animal homelessness. That's why we've expanded our efforts to become a valuable resource for pet owners in our community. We've set up a Community Pet Food Pantry, providing essential food and supplies to those in need. We also host low-cost vaccine clinics and assist with spay/neuter costs, making veterinary care more accessible to all. And let's not forget about education! We offer workshops and newsletters on animal safety, nutrition, and more, reaching audiences of all ages and backgrounds.

Every single donation we receive goes directly towards supporting our mission. It's thanks to the generosity of people like you that we're able to make a lasting difference in the lives of animals and their human companions. Together, we can create a community where every pet is valued and loved.
