Jean Lazzaro, founder of Cry For Help Rescue, had a vision, after being involved for many years in transporting dogs from high kill shelters and animal control from various states to safety at receiving shelters and rescues, decided to become a 501(c)(3) non-for-profit rescue with the help of volunteers, fosters and supporters. We became a 501(c)(3) in August of 2008 and have been striving to rescue as many dogs and cats as we can. We are a small rescue, but we have rescued thousands of dogs and hundreds of cats. We completely vet all our animals before adoption, we do home visits, transports, vet appointments and foster our animals to know what home would be best suited for the animal and the family. We get to know them in a home environment and we have had great success finding loving furever homes for the animals in our care. The animals stay in our care until they find their furever homes. Thanks to the volunteers and fosters, we are able to accomplish our goals of finding wonderful loving homes.
