2024 Impact Report
As we reflect upon 2024, we are filled with gratitude for the incredible support and generosity of our community. Thanks to you, we’ve been able to achieve remarkable milestones and set the stage for an even brighter future.
Long Ears Alive!
We funded: $7337 for 41 dogs located in AR, FL, GA, KY, MI, MS, NC, TX, VA & WV. Pledge payments were made for skin conditions, heartworm treatment, leg injuries, bullet wounds, emaciation, dental care, vet exams and more. Photos and additional information may be found in the “2024 Hounds Helped with LEA Funds” album on our Facebook page.
Project Hounds
Thanks to many compassionate individuals who were willing to foster, we significantly increased the number of dogs in our Project Hound program from 11 (in 2023) to 24. This enabled us to fund $8,077 towards the vetting/medical care, food, and transport of dogs located in KY, MI, NC, SC & TX - the majority of whom were adopted to homes in Canada via our long-time partner - Gentle Jakes Coonhound Rescue.
