Sponsorship is not just giving. It’s making an ongoing difference.
ASSARO is a pro-quality life rescue organisation that is home to Australian shepherds – some of whom are up for adoption and others who, due to their respective health conditions, have become permanent residents. Each has various ongoing needs and costs, detailed below.
Ongoing sponsorships, no matter how great or small, go a long way to sustaining their health and well-being.
