Help out animals in need by providing a temporary home! ALIVE Rescue is a Sustainable Animal Rescue that protects the lives and the rights of animals. We believe every animal has the right to a well-balanced, socialized and fulfilled life. We take on the responsibility to save, rehabilitate and place abandoned, abused and stray animals. In order to continue to help animals in need we rely on dedicated volunteers Currently ALIVE Rescue's greatest need is for individuals and families willing to temporarily foster animals while we search for their forever homes. Foster homes are the most important part of our rescue. Without foster homes, we are unable to rescue animals that would otherwise be euthanized. ALIVE provides each foster home with the necessary supplies they will need to care for their foster animal including food, crate, bedding and takes care of all medical costs. You can foster for as little as 10 days to as long as it takes the animal to get adopted. If you are interested in becoming a foster parent, please fill out the Adoption/Foster Application on ALIVE Rescue's website www.aliverescue.org or email info@aliverescue.org or call 773.913.8100 for more information.

If yes to any of the following, the grant writing team is for you. ALIVE Rescue’s grant writing team meets bi-weekly (although if you can’t make it physically you can communicate virtually). We research and find potential grants from foundations, companies and programs across the country. Once we’ve found a grant that we qualify for, we apply. Additionally, we work to maintain current relationships with foundations, companies or agencies that have previously funded our initiatives. Receiving grants is a very important part of maintaining and expanding current programs as well as creating future programs. If you’re not good at writing, you can help with research. And if you don’t prefer to research, you can help with writing! We will also need help with networking and maintaining current relationships. Prerequisites: Professional writing experience helpful. Knowledge of animal rescue community in Chicago helpful. Six-month minimum commitment required. Great opportunity for someone looking to expand one’s professional writing skills and/or feed their love of research.
