TAS Lighthouse Fund

TAS is a beacon for hope for women leaving violent and abusive homes who need help rehoming their farm animals. TAS Lighthouse Fund is a safekeeping fund to help support these women by giving their beloved farmed animals a safe home, allowing them to focus on their next steps.

Intimate partner violence and domestic abuse within our rural communities largely goes unseen and as a result, resources are very limited for women who are trying to leave these dangerous situations. Additionally, threats of harm or worse to their beloved animals is a serious obstacle for many, making it difficult to leave these animals behind.

This fund is a resource to help alleviate this barrier that many women experience, ensuring a safe place for their farm animals. TAS Lighthouse Fund will assist with direct medical attention, emergency infrastructure as needed, along with feed, hay, and bedding.
