Donations

Fresh Start Rescue relies on donations of all kinds to care for the animals and continue our mission. If you're coming to visit us, please consider bringing with you some cleaning supplies or fresh produce for the tortoises and lizards.

Cleaning Supplies: Chlorhexidine, Lysol/Clorox wipes, and paper towels.

Produce: Fresh greens, squashes of all types, carrots, and fruit (no citrus, please).

Rats: Frozen rats are hard to bring with you, but you can add money to our account on RodentPro so we can buy exactly what we need! https://www.rodentpro.com/Charities/Donate (just put in NC -> Animal Rescue -> Fresh Start Rescue in the red box and choose your donation amount)

Donations of Goods: If you're a business or individual who has items you would like to donate to us, either for use by the animals or for us to use as a fundraiser item, please contact us by email.

Donations of Money: All money donated to Fresh Start Rescue is tax-deductible, and a receipt can be mailed or emailed to you upon request. You'll find our donate buttons on every page of our website and our Venmo and Zelle QR codes below. 

If you prefer to mail a check, it can be sent to:
