The sanctuary is also currently working on expanding the sanctuary’s facilities to include a library, veterinary in-take facility and learning barn. You can find more information about current sanctuary projects here.

She is a warrior mother and for anyone feeling scared to send their kids to school, I hope this episode will remind you how crucial it is to LIVE! Jennifer is an inspiration and I’m grateful for the legacy of Catherine she is carrying on through her work with the Sanctuary.
