If you missed ABC 7 Chicago last week, we wanted to share a link to the story and once again extend our gratitude to John Kararo for his amazing donation of over $99,499! This extraordinary gift helps ARF save countless furry lives and allows us to continue operating as a 100% volunteer-run rescue. These funds will go directly toward medical care, vaccinations, food, misc. supplies, and everything needed to support our primarily foster-based rescue model.

This donation comes at a critical time of year when ARF—and so many other rescues and shelters—are overflowing. Every bit truly makes a difference, whether it’s donating, fostering, volunteering, adopting, or simply spreading the word. Learn how you can help our rescues, here.
