Your past support has helped Blue Iris Farm grow into a place where animals and people alike find safety, peace, connection, and joy together. Because of you, we’ve rescued lives, inspired compassion, and built a sanctuary rooted in kindness.

Today, we’re reaching out with an urgent and deeply meaningful request.

As our sanctuary grows, so does the need for safe, weather-protected shelter for our rescued animals. We’re now raising funds to build two smaller run-in sheds—simple structures that will make a life-saving difference.

These sheds will:

Provide immediate shelter for animals vulnerable to heat, rain, and cold
Allow us to safely expand rescue capacity and welcome new arrivals
Improve day-to-day care by offering dry, shaded spaces for feeding and rest

We’ve set a goal to raise $17,000 for the materials and labor needed to build 2 shelters. Every donation—no matter the size—brings us closer to ensuring that no animal at Blue Iris is left out in the elements.

There’s something beautiful about watching a once-neglected animal find peace under the open sky—with shelter, safety, and the dignity they’ve always deserved.

With deepest gratitude for all you’ve helped us create,
Jamie Collins
