The Ark of Redemption is a 501c3 organization based in Columbus, Ohio.  We operate a shelter hosting cats that is located at 1041 Mediterranean Avenue  Columbus, Ohio 43229.  At present, the Ark has 3 board members, namely, Dennis Swartz, Dr. Sarah Erwin and Jason Foo.

Cats on the Street

Our Story

The Ark started out as a rescue facilitator. Basically, we proactively seek out reputable rescues to help people who had posted on FB forums needing help with a sick, injured or pregnant cat that is homeless. We also reached out to fosters when the rescues were full to host the cat temporarily, until a vacancy became available. As more people started to approach us for help, we decided that having our own shelter would allow us to do more.
