Riverside Rescue was formed in 2003 due to the overwhelming need for a local animal shelter. Gaining our 501 (c) 3 non-profit status in 2005, we have been able to help dogs, cats and other small critters in the northeast region of New Hampshire and Vermont. Our board of directors has put in place that we will remain a NO-KILL animal rescue shelter for all breeds of dogs and cats. Operating solely on donations, every penny counts. More money goes out than comes in and we really all need to rally together to help get the funds to continue this much needed service. All of our staff as well as board members are volunteer positions and are NOT paid!
