Vessels that don't fit operational needs are sold, with 100% of net proceeds funding:

  • Veterinary telemedicine for families who can't afford clinic visits
  • Emergency surgeries for rescued and abandoned animals
  • Shelter partnerships in underserved communities
  • Field operations transporting animals from disaster areas
