Not even a fire can keep the W-Underdogs' down!

The home, animal shelter and headquarters of the W-Underdogs in Atlanta, Georgia burned Friday evening. We are so lucky all the animals were able to be evacuated and no lives - animal or human - were lost. Our animals and youth are scared and confused and we are pouring love into them to help them recover.

The mission of the W-Underdogs is "To empower youth through service to animals and communities".  Working with at risk youth we rescue animals and help the kids learn empathy and compassion and to pay it forward in our communities.  We see change, one child and one animal at a time.

We run on volunteers and donations. We lost donations, gift cards, computers and animal supplies - everything it takes to care for the youth and animals is gone.

Our community work continues.  Our youth need their reading and math time so they don't fall behind in school, so we have to replenish all our educational materials in addition to animal supplies.  We will build back stronger than before with more of an ability to help our youth and the neglected animals in our communities.

We are grateful for any tax deductible donations to help us in this effort. Thank you for considering us. www.w-underdogs.org
