PLANNED GIVING:
FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS
Juneau Animal Rescue (JAR) began in 1963 with a few volunteers in a small shack under the bridge. The generosity of donors like you has allowed JAR to grow to the private non-profit that now helps hundreds of stray, abandoned, and surrendered animals find loving homes each year. Your planned gift to JAR can leave a loving and lasting legacy now and in the future.
