Animal Rescue Fund of Ms Inc.

501(c)(3) nonprofit CARA (Community Animal Rescue & Adoption) is run by volunteers, board members, and part-time shelter staff. Private contributions from individuals, organizations, and fundraising initiatives enable us to operate. No money is given to CARA by the local, regional, state, or federal governments.

The Mississippi Animal Rescue League (MARL), a private 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, is committed to stopping animal abuse. We are the largest full-service animal welfare organization in Central Mississippi and were established in 1969. Every year, we care for and provide basic medical treatment for tens of thousands of abandoned and unwanted animals. No state or federal entity provides general operating cash to us.
