Sandra Frye
Director & Co-Founder
Sandra was born and raised in Hinesville. She attended Liberty County Schools and graduated in 1986 from Bradwell Institute. Sandra has always been an animal lover, owning a variety of animals throughout her life. Her family owned dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, squirrels, pigs, a baby deer, and a skunk.
In 1988 she began working in the school system with handicapped children. Soon after the birth of her second child, she devoted her life to her children and volunteering in the school system. She was the PTA president and PTO president for many years.
In 2005 she joined Liberty Humane Shelter and their mission to save unwanted and abandoned animals in our community. She soon became the new president of the executive board. During her involvement with the shelter, many new policies and procedures were implemented that greatly improved the conditions for the animals. One major improvement was working with a local veterinarian, Dr. Rachel Peeples.
Although saving unwanted abandoned animals and finding them forever homes was an extremely rewarding endeavor, the problem of pet overpopulation never seemed to be alleviated. In 2013, the opportunity presented itself when Coastal Community Veterinary Clinic was founded. This joint venture between Liberty Humane Shelter, MOMS Rescue, and Dr. Rachel Peeples created a separate entity that would provide low-cost spay/neuters and low-cost veterinary care.
Currently, Sandra is the director of Liberty Humane Shelter and participates in the day to day business of Coastal Community Vet Clinic. She has been married to her high school sweetheart for 27 years. They have two daughters and two grandsons, 3 dogs, a cat, and a horse. She loves to spend her spare time with her family and most importantly grandchildren.
