About Sunrise Sanctuary
We are a volunteer-led organization and would not exist without the dedication of all of our volunteers, corporate friends, donors, and supporters.
What We Do
We are a non-profit organization that provides a loving and permanent shelter for over 170 formerly abused, neglected, disabled, or unwanted farm and companion animals. At Sunrise, our animals are our family and their needs come first.
We currently provide a loving home to a variety of special beings, including pocket pets, companion animals, farm animals, and birds and fowl. We invite you to get to know our family through our website and by attending events at the farm!

Board of Directors
Meet the Team
Sunrise Sanctuary's Board of Directors is comprised of a team of volunteers that spend countless hours to provide a safe haven for our residents and ensure that their voices are heard.
All of our rescue farm animals have their medical needs taken care of by The Ohio State University Large Animal Services at Marysville.
