Goal

The Babinski Foundation was established in 2010 by Donald and Elizabeth Babinski, owners and founders of The Babinski Properties which owns multifamily housing in Minnesota, Florida, and South Dakota.  Donald and his wife Elizabeth worked tirelessly to accomplish their dream of opening the animal shelter, but Donald Babinski passed away on August 11th, 2014 before the shelter could open. Elizabeth continued where they left off and the Foundation opened in January 2016 in Pequot Lakes, MN. Elizabeth passed away on November 13th, 2020. Donald and Elizabeth’s dream was finally realized, and Donald and Elizabeth’s surviving family and friends continue to work hard to fulfill their mission. 

Donald Babinski

It's our mission to rescue and restore abandoned and stray animals, giving each an opportunity for a new life and loving home, through adoption and education.

Thank you for taking in Girlie into your shelter. I got the honor to get to know her as her foster and I know she will find her forever home through your organization.

Thank you for taking Lily and her 5 kittens on 9/14, though we only got to know her for a short time after we discovered her pregnant and living under our shed. We found her to be loving and very social, she will be a great companion for someone. We will continue to support your wonderful cause.

We brought Charlie in earlier this month as a stray we found. We would have loved to have kept him but could not due to circumstances. However we know he is in good care at Babinski so whatever we can do to help him and all the other animals waiting for their happy home is more than worth it.

Thank you for caring for our dear friend Ray’s Golden retrievers Emma and Annie for a few nights 2/20/21. The “girls” saved Ray’s life by keeping him warm on the freezing night when he was in a car accident and then found by police many hours later. Your shelter took great care of the dogs!!! We are celebrating the life of our friend and his dogs.

Thank You for finding Izzy a good home. It is hard when someone passes. I wanted to keep her, just could not. I will continue to donate to the great cause you have. Thank You for giving these animals a second chance, nothing deserves it more than them. Hugs and Peace to all.
