๐ CRISIS TRANSPARENCY โ PROTECTING OUR BLUE ANGELS HOME BASE
There are some behind-the-scenes challenges in rescue that aren't always visible when we're sharing the dogs, and today I'm asking our Blue Angels family for help with one of them.
Our rescue property has a past-due property tax obligation of $838. Unfortunately, the tax notices were being mailed to our former Virginia address, so we were unaware of the balance until we discovered the issue.
I have been working with the assessor's office to resolve it, and the full $838 needs to be paid to clear this obligation.
This property is so much more than land. It is the home base of Blue Angels and the place that allows us to continue caring for dogs who have nowhere else to go.
The good news is that once this obligation is resolved,
Blue Angels will be exempt from property taxes going forward.!!!
This is an important one-time hurdle to protect an asset that will continue serving the rescue and the dogs for years to come.
Right now, we are $300 short of the $838 needed to make the full payment today. If we can raise that $300, we can get this obligation taken care of and protect the property.
Our larger fundraising goal is $1,500. Anything raised beyond the $838 will remain with Blue Angels and help with the ongoing food, veterinary and operational needs of the dogs.
I'm sharing this because transparency matters to me. Rescue isn't only about the dogs we post. There are also the less-visible expenses and responsibilities that have to be handled to keep the doors open and the dogs safe.
Sometimes saving the dogs means protecting the place that gives them a safe place to land. ๐๐พ
If you can help us reach this goal, we would be incredibly grateful. And if you aren't able to donate, sharing this post is just as valuable.
Thank you for standing beside Blue Angels through all of rescueโnot just the heartbreaking stories, but the behind-the-scenes work that makes saving these dogs possible. ๐
