About
Almost Home Animal Rescue began as a community effort to re-open an animal shelter in Chariton, Iowa. Since our first steps in September 2022, we have received an outpouring of support from near and far.
​
Our shelter opened in August 2024 to begin serving Lucas and Wayne Counties.
There is immense power when a group of people with similar interests gets together to work toward the same goals.
