  Jersey Animal Coalition is an all volunteer not-for-profit that has rescued and placed over 10,000 stray and abandoned pets since it was founded in 1989. We are a no-kill shelter. Our mission is to preserve life. We make space by adopting, not euthanizing. Now, as the dream of our own Shelter has become a reality, we need your financial support today! JAC is self supporting. All donations go to the care of the animals.

Whatever you choose to give, your donation will allow the pets in our care to receive the food, shelter and medical attention needed to keep them healthy and happy while they await adoption.

Please Support JAC During Economic Downturn
These are hard times. For everyone. Many individuals and families are struggling with the loss of jobs, homes, and food. The economic downturn has had a significant impact on other members of our society too – family pets. In our twenty years of saving thousands of animals’ lives, we have never seen so many dogs and cats surrendered to us because of financial hardship. They come to JAC with all kinds of conditions – malnutrition, mange, pneumonia, and in need of surgery. Many require medical assistance because their previous owners could no longer afford to provide it.

Our goal is to give every abandoned, abused and lost pet at JAC, regardless of age or physical condition, a better life than it had before. This means providing not only shelter, food and love, but medical care as well. The cost of making medical attention available for so many animals is taking a heavy toll on our limited resources, and we need your help!

Your contribution to JAC will help us ensure a healthy and happy future for every needy animal that comes our way.
Please complete our donation form and mail your tax deductible gift today to support Jersey Animal Coalition’s Medical Emergency Fund. On behalf of the animals in our care, we extend grateful thanks!

Warm regards,

Ruth Perlmutter, President

Volunteers Scale Mt. Kilimanjaro in Support of JAC
We are BAAAACK!!! Thank you ALL so much for all of the well wishes & support. You truly have no idea how much I called upon them as were were climbing at 3:00 am in the pitch black with still no sight of the summit!!! To say that this endeavor was the hardest thing I have ever done, is trivializing it. I'll try to furnish some more interesting pictures in the weeks to come for those of you who care to live it with me, but for the immediate, here is a photo of the JAC banner at the peak!!!! Yeah!!

For the record, I made it all the way to this Uhuru's highest peak, & while Charlie did accomplish the summit, he needed to go down just shy of this point. So therefore for any of you who know my husband, that is not him on the other side of the banner. For that matter, my face was SOOOO swollen, you may not believe that it is actually me on the left but it is!!!

Thanks again,
Kim
