"We are embarking on a new chapter in Stray Rescue's journey and a turning point in CHAMPion history.
We have been doing special things together for years now, saving precious lives and doing remarkable things that we could never do on our own. We have a rare chance to do something that only the corporate world or the wealthy are afforded. We have a chance to inspire people who come after us and be remembered for what can be done when an animal is down, and a group of people stick with him until the end.
For us, this is an opportunity to inspire others and to let people know that they can make a difference if they just keep trying. When they see the CHAMPions sponsorships and don’t know our story, they can find out with a little investigating that maybe they can start a group and make a difference like we have.
This is why I want to lead us into this. We help the animals and leave a legacy to inspire people to do even better than us!" - Champ's Dad, aka Mike Duenke
