All funds raised went directly to Take Paws Rescue and Youth Rebuilding New Orleans.


Take Paws Rescue is a tightly knit network of local volunteers dedicated to providing safe, loving, rehabilitating foster homes while searching for the dogs' forever home. They have helped hundreds of dogs find families, including mine! All donations go towards the costs of vetting, feeding, and caring for the dogs in foster.


Youth Rebuilding New Orleans is a local non-profit focused on providing vocational opportunities to New Orleans youth through a workforce development program that trains them in construction. Their mission is to reduce blight by rebuilding distressed and foreclosed homes while engaging local youth in the recovery and rebirth of the New Orleans area. They have done this, teaching youth and leveraging volunteer labor, by building and rebuilding safe, affordable, and healthy homes. They have been very active in providing immediate post disaster assistance to anyone in need including tarping roofs at no charge, debris clean up, etc.


Pepp’s Pub is a dog-friendly, community pub based in Faubourg Marigny who specializes in bringing neighbors together and prides themselves on being dog friendly and “people tolerant.”





If you'd like to donate to Take Paws Rescue you can do so here. They are also always in need of willing and capable foster parents. This is especially true as they are actively rehoming dogs from Florida impacted by hurricane Ian. You can sign up here.
