GOOD EVENING GOOD NEWS -- December 30, 2014






Please share our FEED ‘EM FOR FIFTY ..... DOUBLE YOUR DONATION CHALLENGE ..... We have ONLY TILL MIDNIGHT DECEMBER 31st to match this challenge .... if we don’t fulfill it .... we don’t collect the much needed money. If we can fulfill this challenge, it will take care of all the animals for FIFTY days, getting us thru the worst of winter when expenses can get so high. Please share this everywhere. So many of you are wonderful faithful donors, I don’t mean to be begging YOU all the time for help, if WE ALL SHARE we’ll reach new friends, co-workers, relatives and more out there who’d love to help the animals for a day or an hour or even with a meal. Rikki’s Refuge relies solely on donations from kind and generous people just like you, there is no government funding, no big grants, we do the hands on feeding and cleaning, and we have to rely on individual donations to pay for food, medicine, doctors, bedding, cleaning supplies ..... if we didn’t beg ... we wouldn’t exist ... so THANK YOU for SHARING ..... and if you’re able to help even a little with this CHALLENGE, Thank you. The 1300 animals of 22 species and the small handful of hoomans taking care of them LOVE YOU !!!!! You can help right here www.RikkisRefuge.org/FeedMe





As I write this to you tonight, we are at $9,304.68 .... a lot .... but a long way from our goal of $32,768  ......  each dollar we fall short, will be two dollars short of our dream ....  it will mean working twice as hard to survive the winter.  It’s tough making ends meet all the time .... but it’s especially tough in the winter  ....   please, please .... I beg you to help in any way that you can.  Knowing we have the funds to make it thru the worst of the winter will mean the animals are happy, I can sleep without nightmares of animals doing without, my hair won’t turn so gray from worry, we won’t have to borrow from medical funds to buy hay.  Please, every dollar will become two right now !!!  Thank you from the bottom of my heart.   Kerry

With less than 24 hours left in 2014 .....
I can’t help but look back ....
     back thru the year ....
          back thru the many years .... 
               at all the times we’ve spent together ....   
                    I remember what we shared ....
The fun
The tears
The joy
The frustration
The love ...
     that’s what sums it up ....
         the love we’ve all shared with the animals
             and the love we’ve shared with each other

We’ve become a big happy family
With each of us doing our part ... for the good of the whole

Some of us hands on working with the animals
     giving them their health care
     feeding them
     sanitizing their homes

Some of us working to pay for their food
     their medical needs
     the materials for expansions and improvements

Some of us driving to pick up supplies
Some of us working at festivals and other events
Some of us writing, drawing, reaching out

ALL of us love
     we love doing what we do
     we love giving to the animals
     we love the feeling that giving put in our hearts
     we LOVE the ANIMALS !!!

And that’s what it’s been all about --- love

We come together from all walks of life
     from all over the globe
          together for one purpose

To love the animals who were left behind

To love and protect, forever and ever

Rikki’s Refuge

A forever home filled with love, peace and caring
     a home where no matter how different they are
          we will always love them

ALL BECAUSE YOU CARE .....


Take a walk with me now .... thru 17 years of Rikki’s Refuge .....   remembering all the good times  ......  looking forward to all that is yet to come !!!!   Fulfilling this dream of a time when no animals suffer, no animals are abandoned, no animals are alone ....

Come on ....  this is where we take that dream into 2015 ....
