• about Rancho burro •

Rancho Burro Donkey Sanctuary is a Nonprofit (501c3) Organization located in Arroyo Grande, CA, USA.

• Our inspiration and advocacy began with an encounter with a sweet, gentle, and lonely donkey named Harry, who was cast out into a field on the side of Highway 101.  He belonged to the property owner, but the owner was not living there.  They were treating him as their lawnmower and weed control with no balanced diet or consistent access to water. Although his health was rapidly declining we were not able to rescue Harry and he died of neglect.    


• Our mission is to reduce misperceptions about donkeys which can often lead to their mistreatment and/or abandonment and to support and give homeless or mistreated donkeys,  a good safe, loving and healthy lifetime home, provide them shelter, feed, vet care, medicines, exercise and LOVE!    


• Your donations are essential to help us provide lifetime homes for our donkeys.  


•We are eager to finish the new 46-acre sanctuary project in San Luis Obispo, Ca.  This new property will allow us to rescue many more donkeys in need and provide them with a loving forever home.
