100 Founding Donors. $5,000. One foundation for everything that comes next.

Your gift to The First 100 will help establish True North Sanctuary’s First-Care Fund, supporting veterinary care, fencing and safe enclosures, quarantine and sanitation supplies, feed, bedding, transportation, and essential intake equipment.
