Purple Donkey Human Rescue

07/17/2025

Sweet Alice wants to encourage everyone to become a purple heart member by caring for a rescue donkey. By sponsoring one of the rescue donkeys at Purple Donkey Human Rescue you can give a gift of support to celebrate a friend or family member. Or put together a group of coworkers or a team of friends. Certain sponsorship levels include a private tour of the farm and a meet and greet with Alice and her friends. Virtual adoption is easy. Check out our website today purpledonkey.org

🫏🍼 Did You Know? A donkey's gestation period is around 11 to 14 months—longer than a horse! This long wait is why many BLM b***o adopters may not realize their jennys are pregnant, leading to the sweetest of surprises: a baby b***o! Long wait, long ears, totally worth it! 💕

With spring in full swing, it's the perfect time to celebrate all things foal-related, so stay tuned for more adorable and educational baby content from BRAY!

Please DONATE PROTECTIVE GEAR!! THIS IS WHY From a friend in Marshall NC:

( food goods) They have more than they can handle right now. Soon, I think the long term needs will be pretty serious. The muck was making the workers sick at first, they are now using PPE. A plastics manufacturing plant up river spilled liquid PVC and hydrochlocis acid into the river. I am headed to help a friend contain her small livestock today up in Spring creek. All of my livestock is fine. The property owners in Marshall don't have flood insurance because you can't get it as it has been a known flood zone forever.
