The group’s first intention is to purchase a mobile veterinary clinic vehicle and deliver spay/neuter and immunization services at no or low cost to underserved areas in Northeast and North Central Florida. Ayla’s Acres plans to develop and deliver impactful educational programs to people of all ages in this region. It intends to acquire the property in Greenville, FL that is home to an existing animal sanctuary. Lastly, Ayla’s Acres will create a family-friendly Outpost in St. John’s County which will house a Thrift Store and pet adoption area to help subsidize Ayla’s Acres’ budget.

The Challenge – In northeast and north central Florida, more than 30,000 animals are euthanized every year. This region, like many others in our country, faces the challenging problems that result from failure to address and resolve companion animal overpopulation issues. These issues directly affect the quality of life for both animals and people in the counties we serve.
As a result, thousands of animals – many unwanted or abused, end up in shelters, animal control facilities or left homeless and abandoned. This problem is overwhelming for most communities and must be addressed proactively in order to enhance the lives of the people and the animals living there.

The Response - Ayla’s Acres No-Kill Animal Rescue Inc. is committed to helping north Florida be a role model for humane animal care and concern. The animal welfare community in Duval County, FL is proactively addressing the overpopulation of animals through aggressive spay and neuter, and Ayla’s Acres strives to extend this model to underserved communities and surrounding counties in northeast and north central Florida. We have established a threefold approach to address the overpopulation problem.
