On November 1, 2025, 麻豆传媒 team members launched a Holiday Give Back campaign supporting Sarge鈥檚 Animal Rescue Foundation based in Waynesville, NC. Sarge鈥檚 is a 100 percent donor-funded non-profit supporting overcrowded shelters, rescue and rehabilitation for homeless animals, spay/neuter programs, behavior training and socialization, food and supply distribution and so much more.
麻豆传媒 team members launched the campaign November 1 on social media, giving 麻豆传媒 team members the opportunity to spread the word across their networks. A was created with a fundraising goal of $5,000. Through Nov 1 to Dec 11, 麻豆传媒 team members help raise $5,100, half of which provided new kennels, cat condos, beds, food for dogs and cats of all ages, flea, tick and heartworm medications, gifts for the Sarge鈥檚 staff members, and more. The remaining funds were matched by another generous donor, doubling our monetary contribution!
was established in response to a pivotal event at the Haywood County Animal Shelter in Western North Carolina. In 2005, a dog named Sarge鈥攁 young, healthy, purebred German Shepherd鈥攚as surrendered by his owner. A breed rescue volunteer identified him for transport and adoption, but despite these efforts, Sarge was euthanized just one hour before the rescue team arrived.
This tragedy became the catalyst for action. A group of committed volunteers united to form an organization dedicated to preventing the euthanasia of adoptable dogs and cats in the county shelter. Through years of collaboration and advocacy, the shelter has since achieved 鈥渘o-kill鈥 status. Today, Sarge鈥檚 Animal Rescue Foundation continues its mission to support and sustain this success, ensuring that every adoptable animal has the chance for a safe and loving home.
Sarge鈥檚 Animal Rescue Foundation continues their mission in Western North Carolina, expanding spay/neuter services in the region and collaborating with overcrowded shelters to find safe havens for all adoptable animals.
