When you sponsor an animal for a year you make a HUGE difference in their life. With your donation you will be helping Lucy with all of her care, from routine vet visits to daily feedings.

With your yearly sponsorship (payments recurring monthly) you will receive quarterly updates and pictures of your resident in your email, your name on the IFS website, plus a spot on our exclusive sponsorship slideshow, viewable in the IFS store. Also, receive a free pass for all Sanctuary Strolls for the duration of your sponsorship!

Come out and meet the animals you’ve sponsored—so they can thank you themselves! This is the gift that keeps on giving, for you and for Lucy .

For your convenience, this sponsorship will automatically renew each year until you choose to discontinue sponsor support.

Meet Lucy, a soon-to-be-walking miracle.

Lucy came to us alongside another calf, Tank. At birth, Lucy was able to walk but lost that ability within a couple of days. Despite visits to several universities, the cause of her condition remains unknown. 

Lucy came to Iowa Farm Sanctuary for rehabilitation, where our team and volunteers lifted her in and out of her cart multiple times a day to help strengthen her muscles.

Lucy is a fighter. She is now supporting her own weight and taking steps, and recently made it all the way across the yard on her own. Based on her progress, we believe Lucy will walk independently one day and live a long, happy life here at the sanctuary.

NOTE: For sponsorships, please allow up to 3 business days for your sponsorship package to be created with care and delivered to the recipient's email address.
