5-Star Charity Navigator Rating!

For the fifth consecutive year in a row the ARL is pleased to receive a 5-star rating from Charity Navigator, America's premier charity evaluator. This organization makes it possible for donors to access essential information needed to give them greater confidence in the charitable choices they make. Only 5% of organizations have received at least 5 consecutive 5-star ratings. Thank you!

Now our kitties need your help! Cat scratchers are terrific enrichment and they help provide a smooth transition to a new home. Our kitties are comforted by having something familiar to them. To purchase scratchers for our feline friends visit http://www.stretchandscratch.com/. Scratchers are $85 for 50 or $45 for 25.

Yet Another Reason to Help Homeless Pets
The ARL is proud to partner with Disney in the Give a Day, Get a Day promotion. By volunteering with us for a day you’ll receive a free day pass to Walt Disney World or Disneyland. Visit www.disneyparks.com for more information. Please note that you must complete volunteer orientation in order to be elibible due to liability issues and the safety of our animals.
Valentine’s Day Apples of Our Eyes
How does a luscious, tart apple wrapped in caramel, dipped in milk-chocolate, drizzled in white chocolate and covered in crunchy toffee bits sound? It sounds like a way to treat your sweetie while helping our animals! Each apple is individually wrapped and tied with a pretty ribbon all for just $15. Order yours by February 3. To place an order or help us sell our apples please contact Lora at lrogers@arl-iowa.org or 515/473- 9119.
