What is the history of your organization?
Flying B Animal Rescue & Sanctuary was founded in honor of my husband Tom Baker who passed away from Pancreatic Cancer in June 2023. Tom understood my profound love of animals, and wishing only for my happiness, urged me to pursue my dream of starting an animal rescue. In December 2023 my passion project began. The "Flying B" represents Tom watching over us from the heavens.
