Who is GARR?

GARR is comprised of men and women from the veteran and emergency responder communities. We have all come together to share our passion and love for animals with a common goal of helping those in need. Our team has a multitude of training and real-world experience to bring to the table which will maximize our ability of helping animals and their humans. We adhere to ICS protocols in our response to crisis, which allows us to integrate into, and function in, a multitude of scenarios. 

Our Mission

Our mission is to globally respond to animals in times of crisis, both natural and manmade, while providing technical expertise and compassion to those in need. Our primary focus is to rescue, protect, aid, and assist animals and their human caretakers when they need it the most. Global Animal Rescue And Response is an IRS registered 501(c)3 not for profit organization. 

FAQ

What areas does GARR serve?

We can respond both in the United States and worldwide when needed.

What training does your team have?

Our team is trained and experienced in many aspects of rescue including shelter setup and operations, water rescue, confined space rescue, high/vertical angle rescue, ground search and rescue (GSAR), and hazardous materials (HAZMAT).

What happens to the animals you rescue?

We make every effort to reunite animals with their owners. If this cannot be done immediately, we will ensure the animals receive the best care possible either at our temporary shelter, or at the facility that covers the area in which we are working.

What types of animals will you rescue?

To begin with, all lives matter to us. If there is an animal in need, we will do our best to save it. This includes, but is not limited to, dogs, cats, horses, cows, pigs, goats, sheep, poultry, exotics, etc. We have the ability and experience to work with almost any type of animal within our team.

Do you have a shelter I can visit to adopt animals from you?

We are not a shelter-based organization. When we respond, we work with established agencies who normally have facilities already in place. When needed, we will establish emergency shelters and staff them until a more permanent solution can be found and handed off for long-term care.

What type of situations will you respond to?

We will respond to animal needs in situations such as hurricanes, floods, tornados, wildfires, earthquakes, and even war.

What types of donations do you accept?

Financial donations are the easiest to manage. Since each response is different with a unique set of circumstances, the material requirements are constantly changing. Financial donations allow us to purchase what is initially needed until we can set up a point locally to receive donated material items. 

Where do my donations go?

Donations go towards the costs associated with rescuing and helping animals. All our team members are volunteers, and currently no one receives any pay for their time or efforts. Costs can include travel, supplies, food, veterinary care, and necessities for our response team.

Are my donations tax deductible?

Yes. All donations are tax deductible as Global Animal Rescue And Response is an IRS recognized 501(c)3 non-profit organization. All donors will receive a donation letter for your taxes.

Can I volunteer to help without specialized rescue training?

Absolutely. We are always looking for volunteers to help with the intake and care of the animals we bring back from the field, along with other administrative roles during responses. During non-response times, we are happy to have help with administrative tasks, grants sourcing, and fundraising.

Angel Update (8 December 2024)

Today we took a dog in for his neuter, and to spend some time with Angel. That visit turned into a bath after she accidentally sat in some poop on our walk today. I could not put her back in her crate without getting her all cleaned up, so to the shower at the clinic we went.

As always, Angel stood there with a smile on her face and enjoyed the attention. With all the other animals that come through the clinic, she does not get a lot of one on one time. It was clear that she was happy to have this special level of attention today. In addition to a bath, she received a new and larger crate so she could stretch out more and not be as restricted on movement as she was before.

We are still looking for a foster home for her in Europe starting in a few weeks and going into March when she will be taking her freedom flight to the US and her new family. If any of you might be willing to take this sweet girl in for a few months, please let us know. All of her costs will be covered by GARR while she is in foster. We would need the foster to help with her veterinary documents and paperwork as she prepares for her trip to her new family.

Please feel free to reach out if you have questions about her. Donations towards her care and travel are greatly appreciated, and fully tax deductible
