Education, Outreach and Community Wellness
Through workshops, school visits, and community events, we inspire compassion, foster empathy, and strengthen the human-animal bond. Our Compassionate Care Visits bring the healing power of rescue animals into the community, providing comfort, connection, and emotional support while helping reduce stress, ease isolation, and promote mental well-being.

Paws to Purpose
At Town and Country, our mission has always been about second chances. While we rescue and rehabilitate animals in need, we've also built a workplace where people can grow, contribute, and discover their strengths.
Paws to Purpose provides meaningful, hands-on work experiences for neurodivergent individuals in a supportive and inclusive environment. Participants build workplace skills, confidence, and independence while contributing to the care of rescue animals. Through collaboration with Autism Action Partnership, we create opportunities that help individuals thrive while making a positive impact in our community.
Pet Food Pantry
Twice a month, our Pet Food Pantry provides a lifeline to families across Sarpy, Douglas, Pottawattamie, and Cass counties, ensuring that pets never go hungry. Every bag of food we distribute keeps a beloved pet safe at home, out of a shelter, and close to the family that loves them.
For families facing financial hardship, it prevents heartbreaking choices between feeding their pets or feeding themselves, offering comfort and stability in difficult times. Our pantry strengthens communities, protects animals, and reinforces the human animal bond that makes every home happier and healthier.
