Two of Almost Home Ohio's goals are to actively participate in the community, and draw the community into participation with Almost Home. Since our inception in December of 2003, we have been fortunate to form relationships that continue to allow us to maximime our impact in rescue. These relationships vary ... from veterinary clinics, to retirement communities, to other local nonprofit organizations.
Forming these relationships has allowed Almost Home Ohio to reach people in diverse communities throughout the Midwest, to share mutual concerns, and to learn about opportunities that we may be able to take on together.
Below is an ever-growing list of those people and businesses that have continued to help us grow to truly become a community organization.
