RADAR to the Rescue T-Shirt Fundraiser

What is RADAR?!? We are a nonprofit organization, and we provide grants to help get at-risk shelter dogs out of shelters and in to rescue!

Since we started in January 2012, we have helped almost 2,400 dogs by providing more than $600,000 in grant funding! Visit our website or Facebook page for more details!

Our focus is primarily on smaller, overcrowded, and underfunded rural shelters that typically operate below the radar in the Southeast and Appalachia.

Our efforts are aimed at helping otherwise adoptable dogs in these shelters who are least likely to get adopted (older dogs, black dogs, special-needs dog, medical-needs dogs), regardless of breed. We also help dogs who are on a shelter's euthanasia list; these dogs have very little time.

By covering part or all of the costs of necessary veterinary care, etc. for these dogs most at risk, they are far more likely to be taken by a rescue. We assist rescues that commit to these at-risk dogs with veterinary care, temporary boarding, transport, and other costs. We also highlight at-risk dogs on our website and through social media to help get them on the radar to be adopted or taken by a rescue, and to increase awareness of the plight of at-risk dogs.
