About Sanctuary Hostel
Sanctuary Hostel is an innovative nonprofit startup with the goal of creating an animal shelter/ eco-hostel/ community garden to address the stray animal crisis in Mexico. Our model plans to be self-sustaining in that we will not rely solely on donations and thus not be at risk of returning animals to the streets. We have the land and are working with an architect to design custom buildings. As we continue to grow, we hope to collaborate and work with other nonprofits in both Mexico and the US.
