Etosha is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. The majority of our funding comes from past adopters and animal lovers all over the country. To these people, we are eternally grateful.

There are many ways that you can help and it doesn't take much time or expense. We greatly appreciate volunteers 7 days a week. If you have a digital camera, we always need someone to to take new pictures. Give us a call, tell us in what way you could volunteer--give us a chance to put your skills to work. The ways to help are endless and only limited by your imagination. Tax-deductable donations of cash, food and building materials are always needed and greatly appreciated.

YES, You really can Help!

Please consider including Etosha in your legacy giving by will, trust, or other means. More information on legacy giving can be found here: http://www.leavealegacy.org/how_give.asp. Please consult your financial professional or a lawyer for advice on setting this up.

Special Thanks

We sincerely appreciate the generous support of Ridgeback lovers throughout the U.S. who have made donations to the rescued RRs of Etosha. Anyone who would like to sponsor a particular Ridgeback may do so by contacting us at etosharescue@gmail.com.
