I wanted to kick off 2014 with a big nod to the incredible women who run Rifugio Fata - Francesca and Rossana. Their energy for the challenging and often heart-breaking work of rescuing dogs knows no bounds. We introduced them at the beginning of this blog, back in August, and they are the rock-star women behind everything that happens at Rifugio Fata. Operating in a very challenging region of Southern Italy, these women are bold, progressive and utterly committed to saving as many of our four-legged friends as they can.
Francesca is the 'organizational queen' of the operation! She is in charge of all of the fundraising, communications and adoptions. Being pregnant has not slowed her down!

The lovely Rossana is the dynamo 'boots on the ground' of the operation!
Rossana oversees the day-to-day running of the shelter, making sure that all of the residents are fed and receive any medical care they might need.
By donating to Rifugio Fata, you are supporting these amazing ladies and their team of dedicated volunteers who show up every single day to rescue, feed, care for and hug these beautiful doggies in need. They rely entirely on donations to keep Rifugio Fata going. Please consider pressing the donate button on this page, and supporting their efforts. Or donate to them directly through their facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Francesca-Scerbo-Rifugio-Fata-la-pagina/223244014434430
Every little bit helps! Thank you!
