Guardian Angels for Soldier's Pet Requests Assistance to Buy Land for First MVP Sanctuary
National 501(c)(3) nonprofit "taking leap of faith" to raise $135,000 by April 15, 2009 for pet Sanctuary.
Hot Springs, AR (PRWEB) April 7, 2009 -- Guardian Angels for Soldier's Pet (GASP), an all volunteer 501(c)(3) nonprofit public charity organization supporting deploying military service members, veterans, and their beloved pets through programs aimed at reuniting the pets with their owners following a deployment or an emergency hardship, announced they have found 11 acres for the establishment of the first "Military & Veterans Pet (MVP) Sanctuary". In order to purchase the property, the organization is requesting financial assistance by raising $135,000 by April 15th to remove the contingency for obtaining the funds and setting the closing date.
The property is located in eastern Garland County, Arkansas, approximately 9 miles east of downtown Hot Springs and 60 miles west of downtown Little Rock off Hwy 70.
The MVP Sanctuary will allow GASP to provide a caring, loving, and safe temporary home-like environment where an individual foster home is not available to care for the pet/pets to meet the deploying pet owner's time line Pet guests will be from Arkansas and surrounding states such as LA, MO, MS, OK, TN, and TX.
"We are asking the military community and general public to help us make the sanctuary a reality via monetary donations," said Linda Spurlin-Dominik, Founder/National CEO of the organization. "The space will further GASP's mission by ensuring that the pet is waiting for their owner's safe return from deployment and expand the organization's programs and services to Arkansas veterans' who need a temporary home for their pet in emergency hardship type situations."
