Who Is BARC?

BARC is a non-profit (501C3) all volunteer group dedicated to animal welfare.

BARC is very diversified in its efforts. We have fostered, cared for, and placed thousands of homeless animals since 1997. We opened and operated the first puppy/kitten nursery at the city pound from 2001-2004.

BARC is the proud recipient of grants from PETsMART Charities, Nestle Purina, SeaWorld Busch Gardens Conservation Fund, PETCO, and DJ&T Foundation. Due to these generous grants, and additional funding from our donors, BARC has been able to provide over 5400 free spay/neuters for pets of low-income families since October 2003. Our free spay/neuter program is open to anyone who can provide proof of financial need. We impose no residency restrictions with our spay/neuter efforts as we know animals need to be fixed no matter where they live.
