CHARM Farm - Chodove Animal Rescue and Maintenance

The CHARM Farm came about as a way to address the need for a Rescue Shelter for unwanted or mistreated Farm Animals. These animals come from places where the owners can not (or will not) care for them in the way they need to be cared for. At the CHARM Farm, the Animals come first. They are fed before breakfast and nurtured so they remain healthy and happy livestock.

	The rescue has just over one week left to come up with donations &
	sponsors needed to continue rescuing animals. So far they have received
	just over $1000 of the $6000 they are fundraising for. They are asking
	for media outlets to help them out as much as possible. By way of a
	banner on their site, an ad in a newspaper or other print media and/or a
	story posting on their website or in print. The CHARM Farm also has a
	media section to their website where anyone can go to save/print our
	flyers, etc. Any mentions either online or via the outlets' traditional
	media will see the outlet receive an ad sponsorship credit/link on The

Media Sponsor

We are actively looking for print media sponsorship in Saskatchewan.

If your publication is interested in becoming a print media sponsor, please contact Greg.

Current Projects

We recently obtained over 100 acres of hay to cut and bale for winter feed. This should cover our needs for the year.

We need to haul in several truckloads of gravel for the floor of our steel quonset where we want to store our hay and equipment.

We have several hundred feet of corral to remove from a farm near us and rebuild here on The CHARM Farm.

Fund Raisers

We We currently have no planned fundraisers. Please use the Donate button to contribute.

Help Wanted

We need help in aquiring feed, transporting the animals from their location to here, mending barns and fencing. We are accepting volunteers of all ages form virtually any walk of life.
