When you sponsor an animal for a year you make a HUGE difference in their life. With your donation you will be helping Pepper 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 Open Barn Days! 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 Pepper.

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

Pepper was rescued during the “Chicken Toss” portion of Pioneer Days— an event held in Ridgeland, Wisconsin, where approximately 150 chickens were intentionally thrown from a rooftop as a crowd fought over them as they landed in their grasping hands. A few members from our sanctuary joined forces with almost 40 other activists to protest the event, negotiate the surrender of chickens, and document the horrific circumstances. Pepper was haphazardly slung into the crowd of people halfway through the event, and fortunately, she fell directly into our co-founder, Jered’s, hands! He immediately took her to the triage station, where she received a quick assessment and was checked for injuries. Fortunately, she did not sustain any major injuries, but she was missing multiple nails from both of her feet.

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.
