Head shot of Clyde the goat.If you arrived here curious, but knowing you cannot give a farm animal a needed home, don't despair. The Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary offers you the opportunity to sponsor one or more of the animals who reside at our sanctuary. By sponsoring an animal, you agree to pay a fixed amount that is an estimate of what it costs us to feed, provide shelter and veterinary care to that animal. Sponsors are an important part of the funding that allows us to care for our animals. For more information see our sponsorship page
