We're so close!

Our goal for our Summer 2026 fundraising campaign was to raise $140,000 towards care for the donkeys, and Sakura's Hope Foundation has once again generously offered to match the first $60,000 of donations!

We are SO CLOSE to reaching that first $60,000 to get the full matching fund - can you help get us over the line?

Every little bit helps 💚

You can donate via the link in bio, or e-transfer to [email protected]

Send this to your younger sibling 😅

Even donkeys have to share toys, but sometimes that makes it all the more fun 🫏

Toys, like this rubber boot, provide much needed enrichment for the donkeys and mules in our care! It gives them the opportunity to use their minds, stay active, and solve puzzles — something the very smart donkeys need a lot of.
