Introducing the Anne G Memorial Fill a Need (FAN) Fund🐾
Anne Godeaux lived her life by a simple motto, ‘See a need, fill a need’. Her devotion to animals, rescue, and community service was unmatched and she was always the first in line to volunteer to lend a helping hand.

With her family’s permission, we are starting the Fan fund to honor her legacy. Rather than limit the fund to one specific cause, donations will be used to respond to animal welfare needs as they arise- just as Anne would have done.

She is dearly missed, but her passion and dedication can continue on today and, hopefully, for years to come.

To donate or for more information, please call us at 337-479-1199.
Kind words and/or memories for her friends and family are always welcomed in the comments.

‘For it is in giving that we receive.’ Francis of Assisi
