Happy 3rd Birthday Sheldon!

Help us celebrate Sheldon’s 3rd birthday – March 13, 2019!

Sheldon lives at SASHA Farm, forever safe and cared for with love. And, he loves every minute of his life at SASHA, thanks to his young rescuer, Ruby. Three years ago, Ruby (then in 4H), was so taken by this beautiful lamb that she could not bear to see him sent to slaughter. She convinced her parents to buy him, and spent the night with Sheldon in their van so they could bring him to SASHA the next day. She still visits Sheldon several times a year, and donates the earnings from her dog walking business to sponsor him. HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY SHELDON and THANK YOU RUBY!

Sheldon and our other 300+ farmed animals are always happy to be sponsored, and any animal can have more than one sponsor. Visit the sponsorship tab on this website to learn more, or click HERE. Some of the animals at SASHA are featured under our Meet the Animals tab on this website. Check out our Facebook page for information on even more animals who call SASHA home. Email sponsorships@sashafarm.org if you have questions about sponsoring a SASHA animal resident.

Thanks for helping to make every birthday a happy one for Sheldon and all the other animals!

Beat the Winter Blahs with a SASHA Sponsorship!

All farmed animals who live at SASHA Farm are available to be sponsored, and they are eagerly waiting to hear from YOU. Do you have a favorite? Or do you love them all? Check out our Facebook page to see pictures and videos of many of the animals or visit us at our upcoming Spring Social on May 12th to find that very special animal who really needs your love and compassion. You will also find some featured animals in the Meet the Animals tab on the website, with more to come – a work in progress.

Sponsorships are a great way to make that connection to the individuals at SASHA Farm, and through your sponsorship, you will learn about their stories, their unique personalities, and more about the species to which they belong. SASHA Sponsorships range from $100 for a Helping Hand Sponsorship to $1000 or more for a SASHA Star Sponsorship.  Click HERE to learn all about the various sponsorship levels and the benefits of each.

Pictured above are five sweet pigs who arrived at SASHA Farm from North Carolina with lots of help from our friends. Before their rescue, these girls were in danger. They were considered too sick and tiny, unfit for consumer profit. They were sentenced to be gassed and left for dead. Luckily, some compassionate friends rescued them, and they were taken to Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge in North Carolina, where they were lovingly cared for until well enough to make their trip to Michigan. Now, the piglets are lively, happy, and stealing the hearts of everyone they meet. Three of the five still need one more thing to make their lives complete: a NAME!!  Click HERE to sign up for a Pasture Partner or higher level sponsorship which comes with “Naming Rights”.

But if a Pasture Partner sponsorship is not in your current budget, don’t dismay. The Helping Hand sponsorship is a great way to start the process. Click HERE to start the sponsorship process. Don’t miss the wonderful experience of sponsoring a SASHA animal resident, and sponsorships make great gifts too!

Please direct sponsorship questions to sponsorships@sashafarm.org. We’ll answer email within a day, and we can normally put together your packet of sponsorship materials anywhere from 7 to 10 days.
