We have some very big news to share: ARF IS JOYBOUND! That's right... we have a new name! After months of planning and preparations, we are thrilled to share this news with our supporters, partners, and our broader community. This new name perfectly expresses the happiness and loving bonds we support between people and pets. It's a name that reflects how we've evolved over the past three decades because of our amazing community of adopters, volunteers, donors, and supporters like you! Our commitment to nurturing the human-animal bond extends far beyond rescue and adoption; our programs and services support people and pets through a lifetime partnership. Our new name – Joybound People & Pets – celebrates this long-standing commitment to bring greater health and happiness to dogs, cats, their human families, and the community as a whole. While our name and look have changed, this commitment remains the same and stronger than ever. Thank you for joining us on this journey! 💛💜 https://lnkd.in/gr7n4q6z

Thanks to you Guardian Angel Settlement Association and Steve Degnan for hosting such an inspiring gathering! The program and development team members in the room representing such amazing organizations were so inspiring. Joybound People & Pets looks forward to serving alongside this dedicated group as we strive to make life healthier and happier for people, pets, and communities. #StLouisStrong!
At Guardian Angel and many non-profit organizations, mission synergy is at the heart of everything we do! In today's workshop, Susan Lee Vick from Joybound People & Pets beautifully reminded us that our success relies on the seamless collaboration between our program and development/fundraising teams. Whether it’s a meeting, event, or any initiative, working hand in hand ensures that we can continue to make a meaningful impact in our community. Let’s commit to attending and supporting each other every step of the way. Together, we’re stronger! 💪✨ Thank you, Susan Lee Vick, for speaking at today's workshop. #GuardianAngel #NonProfitStLouis #MissionSynergy #CollaborationMatters #CommunityImpact #SupportEachOther #WorkshopReminder #TeamworkWins #MeaningfulInitiatives #StrongerTogether

Such exciting news! 45 dogs and cats were adopted last week, including EMBER — our longest-tenured shelter animal. Joybound is positively thrilled for each of these families who welcomed a furry friend, but especially the family who brought home our sweet Ember. https://lnkd.in/gyzJxTNv
