Their mission is three-fold:

To provide a forever home for injured, abused, and orphaned animals.
To provide awareness through our education programs that emphasize all living things have value no matter how small or seemingly insignificant. When we as a society can recognize this fact, we will begin to win the battles for conservation and preservation.
