Welcome to Hope's Chest, Inc.!

We want to take this opportunity to share our stories of

homeless, neglected, and abused animals that have

come into our lives here at Hope's Chest Inc.

and forever touched our hearts.

We hope to inspire you to learn more

about the effects of animal abuse and neglect.

We are not your typical rescue but a unique organization

that focuses on providing medical and surgical care to animals referred to us

by Cleveland County Animal Control in Shelby, NC.

Some of these homeless animals' stories are

truly heartfelt, and most will certainly make you cry.

But one thing is for sure.

These animals will be unforgettable and touch you in some way.

Our intention is to open your eyes.

Animal abuse and neglect happen every day.

It is in every community whether we see it or not.

Homeless animals are completely helpless and have

no one to fight for them, to be their advocate.

We, through Hope's Chest, intend to change this in our community.

Help us by contributing to our medical fund to treat

and hopefully save these beautiful "angels".

And, of course, if one does touch your life,

they may be available for adoption.

Please check out our Facebook page for adoption profiles.
