Instilling Hope for the Future Program
Fostering empathy, compassion, inclusion, and environmental stewardship by engaging participants in hands-on experiences with rescued farm animals, while promoting plant-based education, biodiversity, and sustainable living choices.
At The White Pig Animal Sanctuary, we believe in the power of connection—between people, animals, and the world we share. Every day, we witness the incredible transformations that occur when individuals have the opportunity to look into the eyes of an animal, see them for who they are, and recognize that their lives matter. This moment of recognition is at the heart of our Instilling Hope for the Future Program, where we guide young people and adults through hands-on experiences that cultivate empathy, compassion, and a deeper understanding of farm animals.
Many young people have never had the chance to interact with farm animals in the same way they do with pets or wildlife. By spending time with rescued pigs, horses, sheep, and goats—each with a name, a personality, and a story—they come to understand that these animals are not so different from us. They experience the joy of watching pigs play in the mud, the gentleness of a horse leaning in for affection, and the quiet trust of a rescued sheep resting beside them. Through eco-therapy, interactive animal care, and humane education, we create a safe space where participants can reflect on their emotions, learn about the interconnectedness of all living beings, and take those lessons back into their own lives.
Additionally, our Food for Living program offers young people and adults the opportunity to learn healthy, plant-based cooking skills while exploring how their food choices impact their well-being, the environment, and animal welfare. We honor diverse cultural traditions, empowering individuals to make informed decisions that align with their values and health goals.. We hope you will consider making a gift

First impressions are everything when it comes to opening hearts and minds to the importance of treating all animals with kindness, compassion, and respect.

Repair and install additional fencing to ensure the safety of our rescued animals.
Update and install new electrical lines, as well as repair old, outdated fixtures.
Insulate our barns to improve energy efficiency and keep our animals comfortable in all seasons.
Build additional barns to provide shelter for the animals who still need saving.
Grade and gravel animal areas, ensuring they remain safe and accessible in all weather conditions for both the animals and our visitors.
Create a dedicated medical bay to care for sick and injured animals, providing them with the attention they deserve.
Build secure storage for animal feed, medicines, and farm equipment to keep everything organized and accessible.

We are in urgent need of updating our facility to ensure it remains a safe and loving home for the animals in our care, and we can’t do it without your support. The total cost of this important project is $120,000, and every contribution brings us closer to making this vision a reality. We understand that this is a significant amount, but these upgrades will allow us to expand, reach more people, and save even more animals in the years to come.
