ONTARIO WILDLIFE RESCUE CENTRES

Through a network of wildlife centers ( rehabilitators ) across Ontario we try to save as many wild animals as possible and return them to the wilds when they are ready. We also help raise money for wildlife centers across the province. Wildlife centers in Ontario receive no government money and are completely dependent on donations from the public.

Hope Haven Therapeutic Riding Centre

Therapeutic Riding is a widely accepted treatment for a broad range of physical, behavioral, cognitive, emotional disabilities such as Autism, Asperger Syndrome, Downs Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy and ADHD to name a few. Therapeutic Riding is the use of the horse and equine-oriented activities to achieve a variety of therapeutic goals. Our facility provides a purposeful and safe environment where our riders can explore their abilities and enjoy the success of reaching objectives that are tailored to their individual skill level. This form of therapy develops mobility, coordination, muscle tone, strength and balance. It contributes to increased concentration, sensory processing and improved learning skills. Participation improves communications skills, promotes independence and integration resulting in development of increased self-confidence, motivation and a sense of achievement.

BOW VALLEY SPCA

The Bow Valley SPCA has completed the construction of our innovative No-Kill, No-Cage Adoption Centre – the first of its kind in Canada. The Carla Cumming Sojonky Adoption Centre's design is based on the organization's no-kill, no-cage philosophy. This philosophy requires the environment to be more sensitive to the needs of dogs and cats. Design elements include dog cabins and cat chalets which comfortably accommodate three to five animals, allowing for animal compatibility and in-room visits with people. This creates a more people- and animal-friendly environment. The Bow Valley SCPA’s no-kill, no-cage philosophy extends beyond the Centre design. Now that we are open – we are busy generating greater awareness in humane animal treatment and reducing the number of abandoned animals in the Bow Valley through our adoption services, humane education and spay/neuter programs. Animals cannot help themselves. You can make a difference. Donate to the fund of your choice today.

Toronto Humane Society

Our mission at The Toronto Humane Society is to promote the humane care and protection of all animals and to prevent cruelty and suffering. The day-to-day operation of the THS involves the direct handling of lost, abandoned, unwanted and injured pets. In any given year, approximately 10,000 animals pass through the shelter, which is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The injured receive veterinary care; abandoned animals are given a safe haven. Immature and injured animals are placed in foster care until they are strong enough to be placed for adoption. The Toronto Humane Society is supported solely by individual and corporate donations - we do not receive government funding of any kind.

RARE BREEDS CANADA

Rare Breeds Canada envisions a future where Canadians are aware of their agricultural heritage and are involved in the preservation of endangered breeds of farm livestock and poultry, both nationally and internationally. This involvement will be through a broad spectrum of sustainable Canadian farms, which are economically and ecologically responsible, viable over the long term and will not deplete their resource base. In this vision, the gene pool will be preserved in the form of living animals as well as in gene banks.
