Akita Club of America Rescue(ACAR) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit. ACAR existed as a fund-raising committee of the Akita Club of America for many years. With a goal to make a greater impact on rescue efforts, ACAR was reorganized in 2017 and became a separate not-for-profit organization. The ACA appointed a board to oversee the operations and fundraising activities. In September 2017, the IRS approved and designated ACAR as a 501(c)3 and the organization began operations.
Because ACAR’s purpose is to generate and distribute financial and education assistance to hands-on ACA-approved rescues, two specialized committees provide ACAR with the means to accomplish those goals. All ACAR Member Rescues are 501(c)3 charitable organizations.

About ACAR
Our Mission
The Akita Club of America Rescue mission is to generate and distribute financial and education assistance to hands-on ACA-approved rescues.
ACAR’s provision of funding to approved rescues is dependent on funds raised and availability of those funds.
Our Achievements
In September 2017 Akita Club of America Rescue (ACAR) was incorporated as a California Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation, and the IRS approved and designated ACAR as a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization.
Since December 2017 ACAR has distributed over $140,000 to eight ACA-approved hands-on rescues. ACAR’s Emergency Rescue Policy assists rescues when three or more Akitas are taken in at once or a natural disaster occurs and impacts an individual rescue organization.
ACAR provides education on the process to establish a rescue organization and other rescue topics in order to help reduce the number of Akitas abandoned in public and private shelters.
