Farm Rescue provides planting, harvesting and haying assistance to farm families that have experienced a major illness, injury or natural disaster. Their mission is to help family farmers bridge crises so they have an opportunity to continue viable operations.

Farm Rescue is a unique one-of-a-kind farm aid nonprofit that provides livestock feeding, planting, harvesting and haying assistance free of charge to family farmers and ranchers dealing with a major injury, illness or a natural disaster. 

It can be devastating to a family to face an unexpected medical injury, illness or natural disaster. It is even worse for a farming family. Livestock needs to be fed even when a crisis strikes unexpectedly. When the weather is right, crops need to be planted or harvested. Neither livestock nor crops can wait until the farmer is better. A farm family’s livelihood depends on them being able to plant, harvest or feed their stock when the time is right. Farms don’t wait.

Farm Rescue gives families a chance to continue their livelihood by providing the necessary equipment and manpower to continue the farming chores when the farmer cannot, free of charge.

There are 2.2 million farms in the United States and so far Farm Rescue has assisted over 500 of them. That might seem like a drop in the bucket to many, but to the 500 families it meant everything.

Each and every one of us has some part of their life touched by a farmer. From the food you eat, the milk you drink or the cotton for the clothes you wear. Our lives would be drastically different if not for the family farm.

We at Weave Got Maille applaud the family farmers and we want to show our appreciation to them by supporting this one-of-a-kind nonprofit.

Weave Got Maille is happy to partner with Help Heal Veterans, or Heal Vets. Help Heal Veterans provide craft kits free of charge to veterans. By supplying these kits, veterans are able to take part in the therapeutic art of chainmaille along with many other crafts from around the country. 

"Founded in 1971, Help Heal Veterans (HEAL VETS) has provided free therapeutic craft kits to hospitalized and homebound veterans for generations. Over that time, we’ve helped traumatized veterans improve their motor skills, while also developing better feelings of self-esteem and self-worth. Our kits help veterans take their minds out of the past and off their pain, letting them live more in the present."
