Give a Little, Make a Big Difference
The Rio Grande Valley and neighboring cities have the largest stray animal population in the United States of America. Each year, thousands of stray animals are euthanized in local shelters. Many South Texas animals are abused and neglected.
Yaqui Animal Rescue works hard to save our forgotten animal friends. We are one of the only no-kill shelters in the RGV. As a private organization, we depend solely on donations to continue rescuing the homeless animals of the Rio Grande Valley. Our expenses are over $8000/mo. There is no better investment than that of the homeless animals of the Rio Grande Valley.

Monthly Sponsorship Program
We know that people have very busy lives, and may not be able to foster or adopt a pet. One of the best ways to help our animals is by participating in our Monthly Sponsorship Program. Monthly donations help us keep our animals fed, sheltered, and healthy.
Every dollar donated goes directly toward saving the animals. Any and all donations are very much appreciated and are tax-deductible.
