VOLUNTEERS! Southern Sun Farm Sanctuary is pleased to announce a volunteer partnership with members of the Appalachian State University Equestrian Team! The girls spent hours on Saturday, cleaning stalls and water troughs and getting to know all the "residents" at the Farm.

Shown here are the SSFS Volunteer Coordinators Patrick and Carmen Traitor along with Cam Jowers, Anna Cashion, Fia Vanner, Iz Killeen and Jean Dewberry (in no particular order).

We are so Blessed!

YEAR-END GIVING .... Now's the time when many people start thinking about giving to charities before the end of the year to ensure the tax benefits are on this year's taxes. Our gifts are handled thru www.every.org and they now can facilitate gifts through individual IRAs.

Every.org handles your IRA gift from start to finish. They provide you with donor instructions, they track your gift when it is initiated, they follow up if your check hasn’t arrived, and they notify us about incoming funds. They receive and process the IRA-issued checks, then send us an unrestricted grant.

Donors aged 70 1/2 and older can give directly from a traditional IRA through Every.org as a QCD, a tax-advantaged gift that can count toward your required minimum distribution (RMD) for the year, the annual withdrawal required for older account holders.

We just thought you'd like to know!

Every.org is a tech-for-good nonprofit that simplifies online giving for nonprofits and donors.

ONWARD! These are beautiful fall days at Southern Sun Farm Sanctuary, so Milton donned his construction hard hat to go to the new rescue barn and be sure the workers stay on track! Donkeys need jobs and Milton's "job" is to keep things moving!

WEATHER DELAY ... It seems, just as we get rolling on the barn, thunder and lightning roll in too! Progress has been made, but it seems to be slow in coming and winter is not! Our growing season and building season are short because of the elevation and can be shorter because of the weather ... the rough grading is done, all of the roof trusses and beams are in place and much of the siding is done, now we've got to get it dried in, so interior work can be done regardless of conditions outside...
