“
In 2023, we took our passion for pets to the next level. We rolled up our sleeves and got more hands-on, choosing to back the hard-hitting nonprofits that go the extra mile for homeless and needy animals. Our support reached beyond our local community to embrace a variety of nonprofits across the nation, those that may be humble in size but mighty in impact. Looking ahead, we're excited to keep making a difference, to keep connecting with communities, and to keep championing the cause of animals everywhere. Here's
to more heart, more action, and more positive change!

• 114 dogs and cats found a home for the holidays - more than double the number of adoptions at Rescue Village from the previous December.
• Embrace and the Cleveland Browns brought the holiday spirit to Rescue Village on December 19, when former Browns star, Hanford Dixon and a group of employees spent the day volunteering.
