Aimee’s Farm Animal Sanctuary in San Tan Valley, Arizona is a unique home for animals in need. The farm not only rescues and rehabilitates animals, it offers people with and without disabilities the opportunity to experience the therapeutic comfort of animal connection.

The nonprofit organization rescues animals of all kinds from slaughter and mistreatment. Many of the animals are disabled, in poor health, or are dealing with the effects of traumatic treatment. The sanctuary provides a safe space for them to live and heal.
