Reflecting back to 2016 and the accomplishments of Red Rose we are proud of the impact they made in the community as a very small organization and volunteer based.
The Red Rose Art Shows are how we initially began raising money for animal welfare to assist animals throughout the Verde Valley since 2009. Then in 2014 we opened the Red Rose Thriftique in the Bell Rock Plaza.
Red Rose has taken in over 75 animals this past year which consists of felines and canines. Generally, we do not focus on taking in as many animals as we are more oriented to providing services in animal rescue through our 8 programs. Red Rose does not have a facility and often times will need to board animals; as at one point having over 30 animals in our care at the same time. Many were surrendered to us out of desperation. We will not charge a surrender fee as we believe that would compromise the animal’s safety.
90% of the animals surrendered in 2016 were adopted through our organization. Two were returned to their owners but not before receiving the medical attention that they both so desperately needed. The remaining animals we reached out and collaborated with other rescues to assist in finding quality homes.
Red Rose also has a division called Raven Pines Dog Rescue that works in rehabilitation and healing for abused canines, many used in illegal dog fighting.
