It Takes a Village No-Kill Rescue today announced that it will join animal shelters and rescues across the country to participate in the ASPCA’s Rescue Effect campaign to raise
awareness about the importance of pet adoption and fostering and place more animals into loving homes.
During this effort, It Takes a Village will offer fee-waived adoption events.
Most shelters across the country are full with nearly six million dogs and cats entering shelters and rescues in
2024, and animals, especially dogs, are often staying longer in care before being adopted. Choosing to adopt
helps the animal you take home and supports many more by freeing up space and resources. Animal shelters
have pets of all sizes, ages and an array of wonderful personalities, and if you aren’t able to adopt, temporarily
fostering also helps free up space for other animals in need.
“We are very excited to be working with the ASPCA’s Rescue Effect campaign. Their belief that ‘Adopt One,
Help Many’ aligns perfectly with the premise that ITV was founded under.” – Jessa McCauley, ITV Special
Projects
Launching in August and continuing through October, The Rescue Effect is the ASPCA’s national campaign
dedicated to helping organizations increase adoptions and engage the public. This year, the ASPCA is
providing $2 million in grants to cover adoption fees and support operations at many participating shelters and
rescue groups across the country with some holding fee-waived adoption events.
