Goal
Carver Scott Humane Society is thrilled to announce our new partnership with the Southern Valley Alliance for Battered Women: SafeFur Spaces.
This temporary fostering initiative is the latest addition to our Fur Keeps program, started in 2016 to help keep pets with their loving families during times of hardship. SafeFur Spaces will provide temporary foster care for the pets of domestic abuse victims who fear that leaving their abusers will bring harm to their pets. Abusers often use family pets as a means of controlling their victims. Carver Scott Humane Society will give victims peace of mind as they attempt to break the cycle of abuse by providing safe haven for beloved family pets during an incredibly difficult time of transition and turmoil.
Temporary fostering is one of the most requested services we see in Minnesota, but also one of the most difficult to design and sustain financially. Our partnership with SVABW is uniquely designed to be a true collaboration, with both organizations bringing the best of our experience and passion to fulfill a critical need for a very vulnerable population. But in order for FurKeeps and SafeFur Spaces to succeed, it takes a village.
Your donation to FurKeeps will make it possible for CSHS and SVABW to save the lives of people desperate to escape a cycle of violence, and save the lives of innocent animals who could be injured or killed at the hands of a controlling abuser. Please help us create SafeFur Spaces for our community. You are invited to leave an honorarium, memorial, or acknowledgement in the notes when you make your donation.
If you are not able to make a monetary donation at this time, please consider being a SafeFur Spaces foster home. To serve in this way, please apply to volunteer with CSHS today.
