Gretta’s Hamster Rescue
Gretta’s Hamster Rescue (GHR) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in Westminster, Colorado. GHR was launched in 2021 by 14-year old Copland LaBerge. Named after a beloved hamster that passed away 3 days before Christmas, GHR was established with the idea that all hamsters deserve loving homes with proper care.
“As a hamster-parent, I learned more and more about the needs of hamsters and the closeness that can develop between a human and a hamster. I started Gretta’s Hamster Rescue in honor of Gretta and to make sure that all hamsters get the care and love they need.”
-Copland LaBerge, Founder
The Next Step
Copland was recently accepted into Purdue’s highly competitive, accelerated BS/DVM Veterinary Scholars program. He starts there in the fall and will begin his studies to become a Veterinarian. GHR will continue to run from its same home base, but Copland will run it from a distance.
