A Hurricane Helene journal entry written by Scooter🐾, January 2025
“Since Helene hit on September 27th, the organization has not only assisted animals in distress but also supported humans in need. Scooter's Underdogs Rescue has rescued dozens of stranded and abandoned dogs and cats, provided over 10,000 lbs of food, replaced over 100 dog houses so far, and made way for 3 mobile vet clinics. They also addressed the urgent need for heating early on. Through partnerships and generous donors, they have distributed hundreds of kerosene, electric, and propane heaters and tanks, and coordinated multiple propane giveaways in different communities.
Their next mission is to help bring mental health professionals to the area on Easter weekend to further support the community. The motto is to "Always root for the underdog"; and within moments, suddenly everyone felt like an underdog. The mission adapted as the developing needs adjusted. The group will also soon sponsor the spay/neuter surgeries for as many animals as funding permits them to. Addressing the major needs in both their animal and human community remains their focus. Finding solutions through the generous partnerships they receive contributes to their ongoing operations and goals.”
