Benevolent Animal Rescue Committee BARC

A Passion for Rescue & Rehoming

The Benevolent Animal Rescue Committee (BARC) has been a cornerstone of the Cherry Valley community for over 30 years. Driven by an unwavering passion for animal welfare, our dedicated team has helped find loving forever homes for thousands of dogs and cats. We are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, committed to making a difference in the lives of abandoned, neglected, and surrendered animals.

Our Mission

Our mission is to control the dog and cat population through responsible spay/neuter programs and to place abandoned pets in loving forever homes. We prioritize the well-being of every animal in our care, providing medical attention, fostering, and loving care until they find their perfect match.
