Penelope's Place
Clarence, New York
Penelope's Place was inspired by the rescue of Penelope the chicken. This sanctuary is her legacy. Penelope's Place is a micro- sanctuary currently located in Buffalo, NY and serves as a respite to rescued animals. Co-founders Vanessa and Steven Dawson began Penelope's Place in Brooklyn, NY and moved to the Buffalo area to be able to expand the sanctuary beyond the confines of city living. This larger space increases their ability to take in more animals. The grand vision is to not only be a sanctuary for animals but will also be a center for humans to come and receive unique therapeutic healing.
