Hanson Family Foundation for the Well-Being of God's Creatures
Founded in 2023, the Hanson Family Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization focused on keeping pets and their families together. Brad, Jackie, Sam and Betsy share a passion for all animals. Following a 2024 needs-assessment, they are committed to reducing pet overpopulation, providing affordable veterinary care, low-cost spay/neuter services, and removing geographical and financial barriers that force families to surrender their pets to animal shelters and rescues. Working collaboratively with existing animal welfare organizations in the region, the Hanson Family Foundation launched three new initiatives in 2025.
Pets play an important role in the lives of millions of people. For many, they become beloved members of the family. But for those living paycheck to paycheck or struggling to provide for their human family members, the burdens of providing basic veterinary care can seem out of reach. The Hanson Family Foundation was created to help remove these barriers and keep pets with their families because we know they are better together for lifelong companionship.
The Animal Resource Center (ARC) is single access point for pet-related services in the region. Using a people-centered approach to helping animals we will do outreach in the community to connect with those who need our services most.
The Pet Wellness Veterinary Hospital provides high quality affordable veterinary services with a focus on low-cost spay/neuter and preventative care. Dr McLeod is building a top-notch team and connecting with existing clinics in the region to also support their work.
All God's Creatures Equine Rescue and Sanctuary is committed to enriching the lives of animals and will focus on equine rehabilitation and training while offering foster care and sanctuary for retired and rescued horses at our private facility.
