Beagle Freedom Project has been instrumental in the effort to free thousands of beagles from Ridglan Farms in Blue Mounds, Wisconsin, a disgusting facility that bred dogs for laboratory research. Through advocacy, public awareness, and collaboration with local animal welfare and rescue groups in Wisconsin, the organization has helped bring attention to the dogs' plight and the fight to give them a life beyond laboratory testing and cruelty. Our fundraiser aims to support the local rescue and animal welfare efforts connected to this historic campaign, helping these deserving dogs find the freedom, care, and loving homes they deserve.

Brainplate Grows is an innovative, Madison-based organization dedicated to turning food waste into a force for good! By transforming restaurant scraps into nutrient-rich compost, they help regenerate healthy soil and grow fresh food for neighbors in need. Their environmental efforts also extend to restoring local waterways, including the installation of a pioneering floating island in the Yahara River designed to naturally improve water quality. Through composting, regenerative growing practices, food accessibility, and clean-water initiatives, Brainplate Grows is creating a healthier, more sustainable community from the ground up! Our fundraiser aims to help xpand these efforts, supporting local food accessibility, environmental restoration, and a healthier future for our Wisconsin communities.
