Overview

Mission

The purpose of this non-profit is to help farm and domestic animals in need through rescuing, rehabilitating and sheltering, while providing education, adoption, spay/neuter and community outreach volunteer programs. For many rescued animals, woodhaven rescue farm becomes their sanctuary, and they are allowed to live out the rest of their lives here in a safe and secure environment. Therefore the primary exempt purpose would be the prevention of cruelty to animals.
