2025 marks A.R.F.’s 40th anniversary, and we hope you’ll celebrate with us! We are hosting an event and open house on Sunday, June 1 – details below. Keep reading for other ways to get involved!

One special campaign we’re running is 40 Stories for 40 Years: we want to hear from you about when you met your furry friend, how they’ve changed your life, an important memory with them, or anything else you want to share! Please submit any stories you have to marketing@arf-il.org. Also let us know if you’re interested in sponsoring or donating an item!

Whether you’ve adopted from us or not, there are many ways our community can participate in this milestone year, including donating, volunteering, and fostering!

Make sure to follow our social media for more info over the coming months. Let the celebrations begin!
