Rescued Pets Movement Selected as Charity of Choice

In a heartwarming partnership, Rescued Pets Movement Inc. (RPM) has been named the charity of choice for Main Street Capital Corporation's NYSE Global Giving Campaign for 2024. Since its inception in 2013, RPM has made a significant impact in the lives of homeless animals across the United States, rescuing over 92,000 pets from dire situations. This collaboration with Main Street Capital not only enhances RPM's outreach but also strengthens community bonds through shared humanitarian goals.

About Rescued Pets Movement

RPM is recognized as the largest nonprofit organization in the U.S. dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of homeless pets. Operating primarily out of Houston, Texas, the organization works tirelessly to save at-risk animals from overcrowded shelters. By providing necessary veterinary care and transport to regions with a higher demand for adoptable pets, RPM significantly improves the chances for these animals to find loving homes.

The process begins with locating overcrowded shelters. RPM selects animals in need and provides them with critical veterinary treatments, preparing them for adoption. After their recovery, these pets are either placed into foster homes or kept at RPM's boarding facilities until they can be transported to their forever homes across the country, ensuring they receive all the love and care they deserve.

The Partnership with Main Street Capital

Main Street Capital, a prominent provider of equity and debt capital to middle-market companies, will contribute both financial support and volunteer resources to RPM. This partnership forms a crucial part of Main Street’s broader corporate social responsibility initiatives, reflecting their commitment to creating positive change in the community.

Dwayne L. Hyzak, CEO of Main Street Capital, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "RPM's mission aligns perfectly with our pledge to make a positive, lasting impact in our community. We're thrilled to support their efforts, which not only save animal lives but also enrich the lives of families who welcome these pets into their homes."

Employee engagement is at the heart of this partnership, as Main Street’s staff actively participates in various volunteer opportunities with RPM. Their involvement ranges from animal care to community outreach events, thereby fostering a strong culture of compassion and social responsibility within Main Street.
