Terri McKendry's Company Details
Animal Care Sanctuary was founded in 1967 by Lesley Sinclair in Toms River, NJ. Her pioneering practice of "no kill" was practically unheard of in those days.Today, ACS has grown to two locations with over 190 acres in East Smithfield and Wellsboro, Pennsylvania.Our lifesaving mission envisions a community that promotes turning compassion into action for dogs and cats by adopting healthy animals into loving homes, promoting the human-animal bond through outreach, education and advocacy, spaying and neutering to end the suffering of over-population and to improve public health, and the humane and compassionate treatment of all animals. The three pillars that guide our work are Rescue/Adoption, Community Collaboration and Education.We are among the 12-15% of U.S. Shelters who have a dedicated veterinary and behavioral staff. All animals are vaccinated, spay/neutered and microchipped before adoption.ACS is the only animal care organization of its kind in the U.S. that offers internships with on-site housing.ACS is also an Emergency Placement Partner for The Humane Society of the United States.The Sanctuary is also active in its community by providing low cost clinics, pet food pantries, animal care education, therapy dog training and emergency funds for senior and special need pets.Animal Care Sanctuary is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization.For more information please visit us at www.AnimalCareSanctuary.org and follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
