Causes: Animal Protection & Welfare, Animals

Mission: Our purpose is to rescue underprivileged, unwanted dogs, and strengthen the human-animal bond in our community by educating the public about animal welfare. Our goal is to find loving, suitable fur-ever homes for Hawaii’s less fortunate dogs. We believe that through the help of the community we will be able to help those who are unable to help themselves. We strive to find fur-ever homes for our dogs, with the intent of keeping them from ever re-entering the shelter system. At FAF, we believe that through daily interaction with their foster family, FAF dogs receive the life skills they will need post-adoption. A perk of our mission is that we also get to connect with amazing people who are just like us! Animal lovers who want to contribute positively to the community!Cleaning, feeding, spending time with, and also making sure all of our pups are healthy is a big job! So we have wonderful volunteers that assist us with “bath day”, picking up and dropping off pups to medical appointments, picking up donations, planning events, and more! It’s a lot of fun, so if you’re interested, click on the "GET INVOLVED" tab for more info. We also have a foster-care program, where we place our healthy pups waiting to find their furever homes, with families who want to play, feed, and care for them until that time. Applications can be found on the "ADOPTIONS" & "BECOME A FOSTER" tabs.
