While wrestling with the new reality, we're working on executing our 2020 strategic plan for all current programs. We will NOT be able to offer any new grants to worthy programs. So far, 1 FUR 1 provided face masks to all #CourtDogInAction handlers in Michigan, printed 29 different animal trading cards that can be mailed to people they have worked with before the pandemic and now offering educational materials online as well as animal related engagements (A.R.E.).

Since the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, 1 FUR 1 Foundation's mission, to provide healthcare alternatives with the help of specially trained mini horses and dogs, has been in jeopardy. Most of our programs have been suspended, fundraising events have been cancelled and virtual volunteers haven't been available. These vital resources are essential to 1 FUR 1's existence.

Like many others, we do NOT qualify for federal aid and state assistance since our cause doesn't have paid staff. We rely on generous and loving individuals to move our mission forward. Please support us to help others!

MISSION UPDATE

Facts About Animals
 
We all know that animals make us feel good. Now we have medical facts to back-up their impact on our health. At 1 FUR 1, we not only  track the number of sessions we support, but also the health benefits they provide. Our research shows that close to 70% of children and seniors with disabilities have experienced positive health benefits from specially trained mini horses and/or dogs. Our group animal assisted activity programs impact over 10,000 people per year. We need to raise funds to be able to continue our charitable mission. Let's support the health and care for all 46 working animals and their handlers across the 5 states(IL, MO, MI, FL and CA). Can you help with a gift?

DID YOU KNOW?

1 FUR 1 Foundation released the 2019 annual results and they surpassed all expectations.  Our five programs are helping animals that heal the lives of 10,386 children and seniors with disabilities. We're proud of all program partners who completed 1,971 free-of-charge animal assisted therapy and activities across five states. This effort was only possible because of the generosity of our donors, dedicated volunteers and hard working partners but most of all the amazing dogs and mini horses who love to spread joy.
