LEADSRQ’s is a nonprofit organization that started in May 2017 in Sarasota FL when five volunteers (3 teachers, a lawyer and a nurse) got together to do more for the pets in the Sarasota County shelter. They eventually saw the need for more financial support for various animals in their community. Their main purpose is to provide funds for animals in local shelters and rescues that need behavioral or medical support so that animals can get into homes and stay in their homes. LEADSRQ uses 100% of their donations to enhance the lives of animals. They have no overhead expenses and are 100% volunteer. As a nonprofit organization, they continue to need donations so they can continue to do what they do best -- WORKING TOGETHER TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF ANIMALS IN OUR COMMUNITY!
