Friends Of All Beings

02/23/2026

We’re moving! Please help us if you can. 🙏❤️

🤗We’re moving! After 12 years of living at this location and building the sanctuary up from a couple of cats and a few tortoises to an entire sanctuary of rescued animals, we’re moving from this location. 🌴We’ll be going from the jungle of Maui’s north shore to the lower slopes of Mt. Haleakala in Kula.⛰️

💪This is quite an endeavor, requiring lots of building and fencing materials. 🏠We’ll be using as many recycled materials and free pallets as possible. But the cost of buying what we need to buy right now is tremendous. We are also paying for boarding costs at Maui Pig Sanctuary for 5 of our pigs, and it will cost $1000 for trailer guy to move them in a couple weeks to the new location, after just moving them 2 weeks ago for $1000.

Any and all help we could get from our wonderful supporters is greatly needed and much appreciated right now. Thank you! 🙏 ❤️We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and your donations are always tax deductible. Thank you so much to everybody who has supported us for all these years! 🙏❤️🐷🐇🐢🐈🐓🦆❤️🙏

FUNDRAISING FOR OUR MOVE 🏠
🪽💕🐷🐈🐇🦆🐢🐓💕🪽

Our big move is happening soon and we REALLY need your help! 🙏We’ll be moving the sanctuary to a new location and creating an entire new infrastructure for the 53 residents. This is happening soon, which means we need to raise a lot of money fast! This is a time when I’m asking all our amazing supporters to come together on behalf of these beautiful rescued animals. Together, we can move mountains! ⛰️🌋🙏

❤️How can you help? 🙏Any amount you can give will help….those $5 and $10 contributions add up quickly. If you can also share this fundraiser to your page, along with groups you’re in, with a few words about us, that would be really helpful. I’m also looking for one or more folks feeling financially abundant right now who could match whatever donations we receive. 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏

All donations are tax-deductible on your 2025 tax return, since we’re a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

🙏❤️Please send donations, along with a note or icon of a house, to indicate that this donation is for our move. Thank you, everyone! I’m so grateful for all of you helping us out in our time of need. I’ll give updates as soon as I can about the new location.🙏🙏🙏

Because of you, we’ve raised $160 so far! This procedure is estimated to cost $845, the vet just informed us…so I need $685 in the next 5 days! That’s $137 a day! Please if folks can contribute a few bucks if possible, and share this post, I’d be so grateful. And THANK YOU to all of you who have contributed so far with donations and shares! 🙏🥳❤️🐷❤️

🐷Alice is getting her spay surgery next week! This procedure will cost up to $800, and I really need your help to make this happen. Our medical fund is very low right now. Any amount you could contribute would be dearly appreciated. Every dollar makes a difference! 🙏 Thank you to all of you who help give Alice and our other animals a second chance at life. 🙏❤️🐷
