Mission: Helping Animals and their Owners in Disasters
Providing evacuation and sheltering of animals in disasters is what we do. The Washington State Animal Response Team (WASART), a grass-roots, non-profit organization, was created to serve as a unifying network of organizations, businesses, agencies and volunteers that support the preparedness, response, and recovery efforts directed at helping animals affected by emergencies. Based in Enumclaw, WA, and currently providing services within Western Washington, our organization specializes in the actual physical rescue of animals that are in life threatening situations and in ensuring temporarily abandoned animals have food and water. Although our focus is primarily the large animal population such as horses, mules, alpacas, etc., we will respond, to the best of our abilities with the resources available, to the evacuation of all animals when WASART is activated in a disaster or emergency through the Emergency Management Division 911 system.

HOW YOU CAN HELP: DONATE TO WASART
WASART is currently 100% supported by membership fees, donations, and grants. All of the money we raise is used to purchase emergency equipment and clothing, pay for any emergency veterinary care needed by animals in temporary shelters if the owners are unable to do so or if the owners are unknown, purchase food, veterinary supplies, supplements, etc., if donations of such items are not sufficient for the animals housed in the shelters, and training of WASART members. WASART is run by volunteers who receive no monetary compensation for their time or talents.
WASART became a registered non-profit organization in the State of Washington on May 14, 2007 and 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status was awarded on December 11, 2007 retroactive to May 14, 2007. Monetary donations made to WASART are tax deductible. All donations are recorded and tracked and WASART will supply the necessary documentation to donors for their tax deductions at the end of each tax year.
WASART is grateful for any sort of donations, whether monetary or materials. Please see our Wish List for the types of materials we would like to receive.
