Suruluna Received 10k For New Dog Homes!

Suruluna prides itself in working with other rescues and shelters by taking in and helping the dogs who most consider “harder to place,” “issue dogs” or dogs who just do not do well in a shelter environment. The Tortorella Foundation believes Suruluna is doing great things to help these well-deserving dogs and has agreed to match funds up to $10,000 in total donations to put in new shelters at their facility!

“At Suruluna, we provide them with enrichment training and give them love,” said director/founder Anna Cilento. “They learn what it means and feels to be a dog again, to run, play, learn, trust and have human companionship … they are all good dogs! And we are grateful to be able to help them thrive.”

The requests for dogs who need a special place rapidly increased, and Suruluna can do so much more with these “homes.”

Alfredo is just one of the many dogs at Suruluna. More living space for dogs like Alfredo means MORE dogs live.

“We have dogs who arrived in terrible shape phisically and mentally, and we have helped them to be healthy, beautiful and joyful,” Cilento said. “We have seen older dogs now acting as happy puppies, fearful dogs who have learned to trust human beings again, and lonely ones who have opened their hearts to love and human attentions.”

In order for Suruluna to continue its mission, it needs this additional housing space. So they’ve set up a Gofundme campaign and are asking for support to raise the funds needed to purchase custom made kennels, each equipped with the comforts & coziness of living in a home. They will allow the dogs to live in serene and peaceful conditions which are great for stressed out and nervous dogs.

OUR MISSION

The John and Christine Tortorella Family Foundation for Giving Back, was created to enable our family to reach out to more children in disadvantaged situations, to help others who work to improve the lives of these children and their families, and to help those who protect children, animals and our environment from harm.

We believe that reading and writing skills are the cornerstones to a good education, and that exposure to music and art encourages the creative process in children. Our own literacy program,
Enlighten Your World … READ! is our personal commitment to reach out and encourage the interest of children in reading, writing, music and art.

You are invited to browse our website to see some of the activities that we are involved in and to consider sponsorship of the program. All proifits of book sales go into the foundation literacy program for disadvantaged children.

We pledge to be forthright and involved with each entity we designate a recipient of any dollars we give through the foundation. Our family will often respond to time sensitive critical situations, with our personal support, because the need is immediate. There are often crisis situations, and immediately help may save a life of an animal. This can leave no time to properly put it through the processes of our foundation’s polices of discretion and discernment.

And thank you for giving back to those in need in your community.
