A New Beginning for 22 Abused Dogs: Cleared for Loving Homes! We are thrilled to share a heartwarming and monumental victory for our shelter community and the 22 brave souls who have endured so much. Today, after a long and arduous journey, the court has ruled in favor of these 22 abused dogs, allowing them to find the loving homes they so desperately deserve. This decision marks a new beginning for these resilient animals and is a testament to the power of compassion, advocacy, and unwavering dedication. The story of these 22 dogs is one of survival against all odds. Rescued from a harrowing cruelty case, each dog has endured unimaginable suffering. They arrived at our shelter frightened, malnourished, and in desperate need of medical care and emotional healing. But with the tireless efforts of our dedicated staff, volunteers, and supporters, these dogs have made remarkable progress. From the moment they arrived, we have provided them with the care, love, and attention they needed to begin their journey to recovery. Our veterinary team addressed their physical wounds, while our caring staff and leadership team addressed their behavioral needs and worked patiently to rebuild their trust in humans. Each dog has shown incredible resilience, slowly but surely learning to wag their tails again, play with toys, and experience the simple joys of being a dog. The court's decision to clear these dogs for adoption is a momentous step forward. It recognizes their resilience and gives them a chance to experience the love and warmth of a forever home. These dogs, once victims of cruelty, are now symbols of hope and recovery. We are reaching out to our wonderful community of supporters to help spread the word. Of the 22 dogs, five were tagged by rescue partners, six are now living in foster homes and 11 are currently at the shelter waiting for foster or loving homes. These dogs need your help so they can find forever homes. Share their stories, their photos, and their journey on social media. Tell your friends, family, and colleagues about these incredible dogs who are looking for a second chance at life. By sharing their stories, you can help us match these dogs with loving families who will provide them with the care, compassion, and stability they need. Each share, each conversation, and each mention brings us one step closer to finding the perfect homes for these deserving dogs. Together, we have the power to change lives. Let's work together to ensure that these dogs, who have already endured so much, can finally experience the love and happiness they deserve. Thank you for your continued support and for being a part of this incredible journey. Let's give these dogs the happy endings they've been waiting for.

We are thrilled to announce the upcoming 2024 Journey to Our Forever Home Spring Gala. This special event will take place on Friday, April 26, 2024, at 6 PM at the Four Seasons Hotel in St. Louis. We want to invite you to join us on this significant occasion, which will be chaired by Purina. CARE STL was officially established on July 25, 2018. In just a few short years, we have made remarkable progress in fulfilling our mission of creating a compassionate and collaborative community that cares for both people and pets. Since 2018, we have saved a total of 12,935 animals from the City of St. Louis! The Center for Animal Rescue and Enrichment of St. Louis (CARE STL) is a 501c3 nonprofit organization serving as the official No-Kill animal shelter partner for the City of St. Louis Department of Health. CARE STL relies on the generosity of individuals, corporations, and foundations for all medical care costs and trauma cases of the animals we rescue. When you donate to CARE STL, your financial support helps to sustain our mission of saving thousands of lives each year, and your support goes directly to the animals. Your support is vital to our continued success. Thanks to our partners, we can provide community programs and take a proactive and progressive approach to addressing the problem of stray companion animals in our city. We sincerely hope that you can join us in our efforts. Your support will enable us to continue rescuing animals who have suffered abuse, neglect, or abandonment and place them into loving forever homes. This year's event, Journey To Our Forever Home, promises to be an inspiring evening that showcases the power of community partnership and support in making CARE STL an exceptional organization to collaborate with. The Gala is expected to attract over 250 guests and will feature a delightful dinner, live entertainment, a silent auction, raffles, and more. We sincerely appreciate your support of CARE STL's mission and eagerly anticipate your participation. For sponsorship opportunities, please email [email protected] so we can provide the benefits available to you if you partner with us. On April 26, let us come together to support those who cannot speak for themselves but often endure unimaginable abuse and neglect. Your support saves lives and makes a profound impact on our community. Thank you!
