Our Little Slice of Heaven
Welcome to Sacred Souls Sanctuary and thanks for stopping by! We're Nicole and Reiner Alfredson. The two of us operate a 152+ animal sanctuary out of our home in Rimersburg, PA. The sanctuary is home to countless dogs, cats, goats, pigs, horses, and fowl that have all been rescued from cases of neglect, abuse, medical hardship, or otherwise and brought to live out the rest of their lives on our 10 acres of paradise in Clarion County. Maintenance of our sanctuary facilities and all animal care is managed solely by the two of us - we don't have volunteers or fosters to assist. As such, any donations are massively appreciated in helping us to provide the best possible care for our animals.
Our Journey
The sanctuary formally opened its doors at our current location in 2013, but our work in animal rescue started several years prior in 2008. That year, Nicole's Christmas gift was going to be a horse leased from a local farm that we'd found in a Craiglist ad. When we went to the farm on Christmas Eve to see her horse, we found 16 neglected horses being kept in appalling conditions - knee-deep in their own muck. Nicole said it was fate that led us to these horses and we visited the farm 2 to 3 times daily over the next year to provide extra care for them. When the SPCA finally shut the facility down, we took 4 of the worst cases home with us and Sacred Souls was born!
Donate to Our Cause
Every animal that comes to us is cared for with respect, love, and accommodations that keep their utmost comfort in mind. We both work full-time jobs and are funded by what we earn and the generosity of donors who support our calling for animal welfare. If you feel moved to donate and contribute towards our mission of giving animals a safe haven to grow, thrive, and live without fear, abuse, or neglect, we would greatly appreciate your support.
