Located in the high desert mountains of Central Mexico, Mexico's Biggest Little Sanctuary, Angelitos Sanctuario ( Little Angels Sanctuary), an American 501c3, is a long-time dream of an enthusiastic bunch of expatriate and Mexican animal lovers working together to create a place of peace and safety for unwanted and abused animals.

For more than four years, while based in temporary locations, we have managed to rescue over 2,000 animals. With your help, we will save many more.

We are asking for your support in completing a permanent sanctuary that will be a safe, loving, forever home to thousands of unadoptable animals in dire need.

This is Phase 2 of the campaign to create humane conditions and a peaceful space for our donkeys, dogs, puppies, cats, other animal species -- and staff!

Our Story

In December 2023, the sanctuary lost its previously rented location due to the property being sold. We found three acres to make a new sanctuary and began buying the land.

We began basic infrastructure to support our large, mostly permanent population of donkeys, dogs, puppies, cats, other animal species-- and staff.

We have been living on-site with barely the basics since the build began in February, 2024. It has not been easy, but little by little -- poco a poco -- we are making progress. Much of it thanks to your generosity.

We've been getting by with the barest of basics but are still working on creating habitable conditions for our animals and staff as well as areas of enrichment for the animals.

We currently have crowded conditions, no play spaces, no bathrooms, no running water, and insufficient shelters. Phase 2 will bring us up to speed and help us finish many things to be fully operational.

We must make the property safe and habitable for our animals and staff and complete the infrastructure for our successful adoption efforts abroad.

Here is how your generous donation will aid us:

● bathrooms

● staff kitchen and running water

● trees (for air and shade)

● fencing (for safety)

● gates to property

● burro barn

● more runs for dogs

● parks for dogs

● small Mexican staff

● vet costs

● food, water, daily essentials

● puppy area/vet office

Together, we forge ahead to turn these little three acres into Mexico's Biggest Little Sanctuary!
