Every year, the children at Battle Creek Elementary participate in what they call "Cha-Ching" week. During this week, students bring in any cash they have available; pennies and dimes found in couch cushions or dollars graciously donated from their personal funds. The students bring in their money and decide as a group what charity the donation will go to. This year, the students chose Home for Life!

Meet up with Home for Life and some of our lovable animals this August! 

Home for Life will be attending Paws on Grand, a yearly event in St. Paul! Home for Life will have a booth outside of Kowalski's: 1261 Grand Ave, St Paul, MN 55105.

Home for Life was invited by the Walker Art Center to attend this year's Cat Video Fest! 

Home for Life had a booth run by volunteers handing out pamphlets and answering questions.

A recent post on Reddit, an interactive social media site, was quickly picked up and rehashed on Carbonated TV. Carbonated TV is a media site that highlights trending content gathered from all over the world.

Thanks to Mark Luinenburg's fantastic photos of our amazing animals, Home for Life gained some recognition on Reddit over the weekend. With their unstoppable optimism and determination, they won the attention of a writer at Buzzfeed. And we can't thank them enough!

Ashley, a long-time resident of Home for Life, has earned some international publicity thanks to her perserverence in overcoming outstanding circumstances. From her near death experience and paralysis at the hands of a violent man, she has gone on to grow and flourish as an adult.

Home for Life recently had their annual Fall Fancy Feast fundraising event! The event was a sold out success, and we thank everyone who attended or contributed to the event!

The event included music from the Kenwood Symphony, a silent auction, a beautiful brunch buffet, complimentary champagne, a Bloody Mary Bar courtesy of the 45th Parallel Distillery and even an ice cream sundae bar from Grande Ole Creamery. Guests of the event were also able to meet some of Home for Life's animals during the event's world famous Dog Parade!

Home for Life's very own Rory, the dog who was found tied to the gates of Home for Life in the middle of winter, made a full recovery and gave birth to ten adorable puppies! Rory and her incredible story of survival received notice from Leah Beno at Fox News.

From Ashley and all the special animals at Home for Life, we are very grateful!
