Our Greatest Mission Is To Serve Animals In Need!
Woodraska’s Wallow Animal Rescue Sanctuary (WWAS) was established as a Non-profit Organization in March of 2022. Our Operation began in 2018 entirely funded by the executives and volunteers of Woodraska’s Wallow. It wasn’t until 2022 that the organization’s needs grew to a point in which we needed to expand our donor base to include public and private funds. The need for services and A haven for animals throughout the country is ever-expanding. We fill that need to its fullest and continue to increase our habitats to be able to take in more animals.
Impacting our Foster Youth
We also have a huge impact on the dozens of Foster children we have had in our care. Allowing these children to interact with neglected and special needs animals. Creates a bond that will last a lifetime for that child and the animal. These children learn that animals need love and care just as they are. Woodraska’s Wallow makes a difference in children’s lives by providing a safe place for them and the animals under our care.
