Animal Hope and Wellness Foundation Reviews
Marc Ching is a fraud.He has cheated donors of thousands of dollars under the guise of rescuing animals when all he has done is go round filming torture and seemingly enjoying it and then buying mutilated dogs.
He has publicly admitted to losing $100,000 of donors money and he stole mine.Ching ( if that is even his real name) runs something called the Hope and Wellness Foundation.He claims to have been rescuing animals for years but in fact he only registered his 501c3 in 2014 and has not even filed his accounts yet.
He started off he says specialising in rescuing mutilated dogs from California and then last year developed an unhealthy interest in the dog meat trade.He claims it he is from Hawaii where we all know they eat dog meat.
I donated to his fundraiser like many more when I read his story on GO FUND ME. https://www.gofundme.com/fg393q6s
He claimed he was in Beijing saving dogs.
.I am not the only one who got taken in by his sob story.He has gotten over $21,000 from this and he can't still be there.In fact I know he is not.

Hi - sorry for the delay in responding. I was trying to confirm with Marc whether we were still working with the orphanage or not. And unfortunately we are not. The dogs he saved from Yulin are at our shelter in Nanning if you would like to go there to visit them and bring them supplies.
There are other dog shelters in Beijing but we no longer operate out of there. I'm happy to find a location for you to visit if that's the only city you are able to travel to.

As you can see this email is dated July." They no longer work out of Beijing" so what are they doing still raising money for rescue efforts there.
And as for the Orphanage,well that is how they got me even further.Ching claimed not just to be helping animals but kids as well.What a scumbag.

The Orphange was something I had planned to do on my first trip to China. I went to the orphanage, met the founder, etc. And we had planned to help them, in return, to be allowed to use their farm to house dogs rescued from the meat trade.
However, we chose not to use the orphanage for the fact that it is off grid and not government sanctioned. Meaning, if they find out where the orphanage is, they would raid it and possibly seize all the dogs. (These orphanages are hidden, and based on that I could not tell you it's location. But you could research, and contact them yourself.)
The 1000 plus dogs rescued from Yulin, we built a shelter in Nanning.
Some of dogs were taken by other groups, local and international organizations.
You can wechat Valarie, and she can put you in touch with the person running our shelter so you can visit. His name is Jeffery.
When you travel to Nanning, he can meet you and bring you to the shelter so you can see the dogs, etc. The address is not public information, due to the instability in the region. But through wechat, our main volunteer at the shelter could meet you and take you there.
I am barely on email, so Valarie is a better contact to use.
Hope all is well. The airport to fly into is Nanning (NNG).
Marc
If he chose not to work with an Orphanage after his first trip in September 2015 how come Valarie did not even know this in July 2015. I checked his facebook and he has now taken down his post where he says he met an Orphan on the street of Beijing and that's how he was going to help kids and dogs.
Now, here are more lies.He says he saved 1000 exactly 1000 dogs from Yulin.By daved he means he bought them with donors money.He says they are at his shelter but as of yesterday when he was questioned by another facebook user he admitted three things.
1.1000 dogs are not in his shelter and in fact he does not even have a shelter.
2.The shelter where some of the dogs are Tree of Life is not a secret location.
3.He has lost hundreds of thousands of dollars of donors so that is public money by giving it to some stranger.
He claims to rescue dogs all around the world but is not much on email.Funny that, he responded to the Facebook User questions in less than one hour.He is also blaming Valarie his director of operations for setting up fundraisers he does not endorse or know about.
There are loads more unanswered questions.He charges $1000 a dog if you want to buy the rescue he has bought and he has got fundraiser all over the place.Let's see just how much of this money raised that he has not " lost" he plans to declare on his IRS FILING.
