Final Victory
Animal Shelter
Mission
Final Victory Animal Rescue was founded in May 2017 to serve a need for the animal rescue community. There is always an urgency to get the dogs out of the shelters due to space issues and the threat of euthanasia.
We are a nonprofit dog and cat rescue located in West Columbia, South Carolina. We give animals a positive experience after a traumatic time in the shelter, neglected homes, or living on streets. Large 5’x10′ runs, long walks by volunteers in quiet neighborhoods, outdoor play yards for socialization, and other positive play serve as a positive first step towards their forever homes.
Our Involvement
During our Fly For Foundations event, The Rick Mantei Team partnered with Final Victory Animal Shelter, a nonprofit dedicated to rescuing dogs and cats from shelters, neglect, or the streets. Their work provides animals with a safe, positive transition toward their forever homes, offering love and care after trauma. The support efforts helped advance their mission of giving animals a true “final victory” through adoption and new beginnings.
