Peaceful Valley Donkey Rescue
Our Key Projects
Peaceful Valley Donkey Rescue (PVDR) leads several key initiatives to protect and care for donkeys. The Wild Burro Project rescues and rehomes wild burros, giving them a safe and loving second chance. The Donkey History Museum celebrates donkeys’ contributions throughout history and educates visitors on their ongoing challenges. Project: Sanctuary provides lifelong care for donkeys who cannot be adopted, ensuring they live out their days in safety and comfort. All donkeys that enter our system receive a Donkey Identification.
Donkeys of the Caribbean
The second film project from Director Mark S. Meyers and Cinematographer Mike Brown dives into the complex and often divisive subject of the donkey populations living on many islands throughout the Caribbean. On some islands they are a tourism boon, on others an ecological threat.
Cases
PVDR has supported large-scale and complex equine welfare cases, including the San Bernardino seizure, the Olancha hoarding rescue, and the care and placement of over 3,000 BLM sale burros. Through coordinated response, rehabilitation, and rehoming efforts, PVDR helps ensure vulnerable animals receive the care and second chances they deserve.
