Life's Abundance Gives Back: Here are Just a Few of the Variety of Animal Rescue Groups

Every time you shop from Life's Abundance, a portion of the profits is set aside to fund the good works of our charitable foundation. This is true whether you order our superior nutritional supplements for yourself, or premium food, treats and supplements for your companion animals. Your repeat business helps fund the efforts to save the lives of homeless, abused and neglected animals throughout the United States.


The Dr. Jane Foundation is our non-profit agency that provides financial support to small and medium-size rescue groups from coast to coast. Each charitable organization dedicates itself to the hard work of ending animal homelessness and helping pets survive and overcome the effects of chronic abuse and neglect. Our financial support helps many rescue groups continue their operations and grow. Since 2007, the Dr. Jane Foundation awarded in excess of $200,000 to over 150 deserving groups.
The needs are many and great. Today, reliance upon euthanasia is just a fraction of what it was 20 or 30 years ago due to our efforts and the efforts of others. Still yet, far too many adoptable dogs and cats have their lives ended prematurely. We very much support a no-kill approach.


To qualify for funding from our foundation, applicants must meet rigorous criteria. 
Just think, simply by buying from Life’s Abundance, you’ll be making the world a better place for dogs and cats in need. How often do you get to do something super positive without having to do anything different at all? As long as you keep purchasing our health-promoting products, you’ll be supporting rescue efforts across the US!
And now, we’re pleased to inform you that our Board of Directors held a quarterly meeting on July 17, 2018. We approved funding several grant applications and sent checks to the following worthy rescue organizations in addition to several others.
ACTion Programs for Animals
Located in Las Cruces, NM, this 100-volunteer-strong animal rescue is making a tremendous difference, not only in their local community, but even beyond state lines. Since May of 2012, they have rescued more than 3,500 dogs and cats. Nearly all of those were pulled from a nearby high-kill shelter. They have been able to make such great strides through the tireless work of their committed volunteer network of rescue and foster coordinators and families. They've even managed to hold weekend adoptions to locate loving homes for their rescues quickly and efficiently, all on a shoe-string budget. Soon, they plan to move into a newly purchased facility that will double their housing capacity, further bolstering their presence in the area as a welcome alternative to municipal shelters.
Animal Rescue of Southern Colorado
Based in Antonito, CO, this small yet committed animal welfare group focuses their efforts on two pressing needs: one, to house, care for and adopt out neglected and abandoned dogs; and two, to reduce pet overpopulation through spay-neuter services. Now barely into their second year of operation, this hardworking rescue managed to save 74 dogs in their first six months! Their goal - and fervent hope - is to never have to turn away a dog in need. Our financial grant has been earmarked to help cover the costs of constructing a modern kennel, which will allow them to rescue even more homeless animals. The new kennel will utilize solar panels to provide heat during harsh winters.
Bounce Animal Rescue
This foster-based rescue organization is located in beautiful Northern Colorado. Their goal is to grow to the size where they'll be able to rescue unwanted animals from high-kill shelters all over the country, place them with loving fosters and ultimately find them forever homes where they will be loved unconditionally. Even while they're out there saving lives, they're still focused on the well-being and adoption of unwanted animals. They're committed to building stronger community relationships, investing in technology and fundraising at the grassroots level. Bounce focuses on quality veterinary care, nutrition, spay/neuter programs, training and, of course, adoptions.
Boxer Aid and Rescue Coalition, Inc.
Headquartered in Tallahassee, Boxer Aid and Rescue Coalition is a not-for-profit rescue organization that operates a network of volunteers in north Florida and south Georgia. In their decade of operation, these devoted caretakers have helped to rescue and find forever homes for hundreds of Boxers. Each dog receives medical care, basic training (including a behavioral assessment), a caring foster environment and the promise that they’ll be ultimately be placed in homes where they will be treated "as a member of the family." Keep an eye on this group, as they plan to expand their organization to help provide care for senior and hospice dogs.
Become a Life's Abundance Representative and help us keep funding these worthwhile organizations.
