And we're beggin' you to help!

When the Animal Rescue League of Iowa opened its doors in 1986, the shelter was caring for just over 3,000 animals annually. Today, there are more than 18,000 abused and homeless animals coming through our doors.

There is a growing need. But a shrinking Animal Rescue League. We are simply out of room.

We desperately need a shelter - not only to accommodate more and more animals, but to provide space for important educational programs that will truly make a difference in the lives of animals and their caretakers.

But we need your support. More than that, our animals need you. The proposed cost for building this new facility is 9.5 million dollars. We need funds! Whatever you can do to help our efforts is greatly appreciated.
