Minnesota Boxer Rescue

#GiveToTheMax24

Minnesota Boxer Rescue is a non-profit, foster-based dog rescue organization primarily serving Minnesota and surrounding areas. We are run 100% by dedicated and committed volunteers.  What this means is that YOU help make this rescue possible! 

Through September of this year, MNBR has had 61 successful adoptions with 12 dogs currently in foster care. Our total expenses for this year so far are $55,036 while collecting only $26,590 in adoption fees which means that, on average, we spend 2x more per dog than we collect in adoption fees (a shortfall of $467 per dog).  We rely on your generous donations to cover the difference. 

MNBR's largest expenses come from our veterinary care. Your financial donations help to cover those expenses. We work with several great vets which provide great (sometimes lifesaving) services at a discount, but it all adds up. Every dog coming into rescue is given basic vetting, including spay/neuter if needed, but some dogs require extra medical attention.

As an example, we have recently taken in a bonded pair of boxers, Glenn and Gary (because the only thing better than one boxer is two), that will need some additional car. Glenn is very underweight and has a few lumps which will need to be removed along with some potential dental work. Gary is heartworm positive. 

This year we are asking for people to commit to becoming sustainers and pledging an amount to donate monthly. This provides MNBR with a consistent stream of revenue which helps cover the average $467 shortfall between the amount we spend on a dog compared to the amount recovered from adoption fees. It also ensures that we have a steady stream of revenue to cover non-veterinary costs for our dogs such as providing a collar ($10), a bed ($25), and food ($50). 

And if you make a donation today, it will be DOUBLED as we have received a matching gift of 5,000 from a very generous supporter!!!! Make your donation today to help us earn every dollar!
