On Wednesday, April 11th of 2018 at 4:00 PM, on National Pet Day, a new source of support for All4Paws was officially born – at a ribbon cutting ceremony for Rescued Treasures.

The Vision for Rescued Treasures, a very special upscale boutique resale store, was created by Beverly (Dougherty) Halverson, who had earlier helped create a resale store for another area not-for-profit.  The vision and plan were created at the request of the Board who was looking for additional sources of funding so that All4Paws could do more for the many homeless and helpless dogs and cats in need.  Little did anyone realize what was about to happen.

Considerable time was spent looking for the right location and facility.  As with everything that All4Paws seems to do (when we do the right thing, in the right way, at the right time and for the right reason), things just fall into place.  Rescued Treasures startup was so successful that the store was expanded in the 4th quarter of 2019.

Rescued Treasures revenue has increased every year making it possible for All4Paws to rescue more abandoned and abused dogs and cats.  Since its beginning in 2018, it has generated over $1.5 Million in revenue for All4Paws.  In addition to this, Rescued Treasures has enriched the All4Paws brand by the quality of what they do and how they do it and has hosted our Annual Auction Fundraiser.

While the vision was critical for its beginning, what makes Rescued Treasures so special are the many very talented volunteers and very small staff that make it happen, the very special donors who share our compassion for animals and donate the merchandise to sell, and the many shoppers that visit the store looking for awesome offerings at amazing prices.

For Rescued Treasures legacy to continue we always need volunteers, donors, and customers.  Anyone can be a part of this amazing story by volunteering, donating, and shopping at what has been voted for years as the best boutique resale store in the area.

To everyone who has been a part of this amazing story a special THANK YOU!  Know that your footprints have funded hope and love for thousands of hopeless animals and the people they have touched.

For directions to the store – go to Fresh Market in Pawleys Island, look across the street, then go to Rescued Treasures.
