What is a Pigoneer?
A Pigoneer is someone who sees the enormity of what Beneath the Wood Sanctuary has done in rescuing these 91 pigs.
We need 3820 Pigoneers to donate just £2.50 a month, every month. That way Beneath the Wood Sanctuary will always know the food bill and other piggy costs are taken care of and no longer have to worry about it.
As many people know Beneath the Wood Sanctuary rescued #53Pigs who then gave birth to the #53Piglets resulting in 91 rescued pigs from an horrific farm and illegal slaughter house.
To look after all these pigs requires a lot of work and a lot of feed.
The work load is huge because pigs unlike ruminants require specific food and care.
The piglets are now grown and each pig weighs up to half a tonne and costs £3.50 a day to feed. This does not sound much but equates to almost £9,800 a month when there are 100 of them.
How this works
A pigoneer donates just £2.50 each month and can also try to help enrol other Pigoneers to ensure the feeding and caring of all these piggies
Sasha at Beneath the Wood Sanctuary works on average 18 hours a day looking after all these pigs and the other sanctuary residents. Knowing that the feed each week is covered means that she can concentrate on what she does best, caring for all these pigs and to no longer have to worry about trying to raise funds for their feed. We think the pigs deserve to live long and happy lives and we think that Sasha deserves some help, we would like to think enough people agree and step up to become pigoneers.
91 pigs saved from doom
Now have a barn with plenty of room
Bales of hay
For them to lay
At night when they sleep safe and sound
Those piggies have found
That two meals a day
Is the best way to keep hunger at bay
So let’s all donate just two pounds fifty
And feed the pigs, wouldn’t that be nifty?
