Save our Shelter!

Friends of Animals is a small, 501(c)3 nonprofit animal shelter in Cloquet Minnesota.  We outgrew our previous shelter due to the building wearing out. What we really needed was a building that increased our space and allowed us to serve our animals' needs.  

That dream came true in May of 2017 but it came at a cost. Due to issues with construction we had to use all of our savings and we were left with a $100,000 morgage and an unfinished building. We have since had to close our doors because we had to much debt to sustain shelter operations, the morgage, and finish remodeling and maintaining the facility.

We hope to raise $150,000 to help us finish the facility and assist us in paying off the morgage. Twenty years ago the community had a dream, to raise funds and open a facility to care for the homeless, lost, and neglected animals of Carton County AND today that dream is still live and we still have hope for our new shelter and its future.

Our heartfelt thanks go out to everyone who has and continues to help us regardless of the size of the donation, it all helps!

Thank you again for your genorosity and support! We couldn't have done it without you!
