Happily Ever After Animal Sanctuary Inc.
Our Mission
At Happily Ever After (HEA), our mission is simple: to create a world where the life of every companion animal matters. We believe in providing a loving home to every animal that enters our care, ensuring a lifetime of safety and security for all.
Our History
Founded in 2006 by Amanda Reitz, our organization began in a family garage with a vision to save animals one by one. Today, we have grown into a dedicated family venture with a state-of-the-art Adoption Center in Green Bay and a beautiful forty-acre Sanctuary in Marion, Wisconsin.
How We Care
We provide temporary and lifetime care through a commitment that includes adoption, education, spaying/neutering, rehabilitation, and sanctuary services. Our facilities, including our guest cottages at the Sanctuary, are designed to give our animals the comfort they deserve while they await their forever families. We are proud to be a place of safety where animals are loved with no timetables.
Your Partnership in Adoption
Adoption is a meaningful, lifetime commitment, and we are here to support you every step of the way. We focus on finding the right match for both people and pets, providing ongoing guidance and resources after you bring your new family member home. When you adopt from HEA, you are becoming part of our family for life.
