Ways You Can Help

We are a community-based, non-profit organization made up of volunteers. We are only as successful as you, our neighbors and community members, help us to be. There are many ways to be involved; financial support, volunteer help, donations, services rendered and skills put to use are all critical to our mission - and appreciated more than we can possibly express!

Please click on the other tabs for additional information. Thank you for caring!

Whether gently used, easily refurbished or newly purchased - these items are always appreciated:
Dog houses, cat houses, blankets, nail clippers, dog/cat food and treats, food bowls, leashes, collars/harnesses, kennel runs/panels, travel kennels, live trap-cages, (safe) catch poles, medical (carry/lift) slings for injured pets, small holding cages for smaller pets (birds, guinea pigs, etc), microchip readers, and even pet emergency supplies!

Other ideas for donations:
Pre-paid gift cards or certificates for local pet services (groomers, trainers, doggie day care facilities) or pet supply retailers. You can even donate funds directly to local veterinarian clinics for our use! Please contact us for additional information.

If we receive a donation that we don't have an immediate or known need for, we will ensure another local rescue or shelter receives it.

Yes, unfortunately, we need to ask for financial help with the day-to-day expenses such as fuel, medicine, dog food, grooming and vet expenses. The list just goes on! If you are able, we always appreciate a donation!

We are even happy to take cash! But wait! There are other options that may fit your budget even better:

1. You can transfer stock to us. This is a win/win! We get the full amount when the stock is sold, you get the tax deduction for the donation and no capital gains taxes have to be paid. Whoo-hoo! *NOTE* For the above to be true, you must transfer the stock itself, not sell it then donate the proceeds.
2. Have a required minimum distribution coming up on your IRA or 401(k)? Afraid it will “up” your taxes? Call your Plan Administrator and have it sent directly to us (all or part of it). Again, a win/win – we get the full amount, you don’t have to pay taxes on it and there are no concerns about a higher tax bracket.
3. Leave us a bequest in your Will. Say what?!? In the spirit of “All Dogs Go To Heaven,” we can help ensure that the legacy of your kind spirit will live on after you pass, by helping local furry and feathered friends in need.

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT US WITH QUESTIONS OR FOR HELP WITH ANY OF THESE OPTIONS.

There are so many ways to volunteer! You can:

• Donate your time! From walking rescue dogs to transporting animals to veterinary appointments and assisting in rescues...we need you!
• Offer your creative skills! Can you build dog houses? Transform old tires or storage tubs into cat houses? We can use your talents!
• Offer your services! Are you a dog trainer? Pet groomer? Veterinarian or vet tech? Professional advice, discounted services, promoting/advertising (hanging posters at your place of business, sharing on your social media sites...) - any of these services are greatly appreciated!

Fostering is not for everyone, but the rewards are enormous for those that are able to do so! The amount of love you receive from your fosters, the joy you share in when the perfect human adopts a rescue, the happiness your heart feels knowing you made a difference in even one animal's life ... all greatly outweigh the failures or losses we shoulder in this rescue life.

Whether our foster animals were loved and cared for at one time, or neglected, abused, discarded ... they are all in need of help and love. Knowing we all have different living arrangements and skill-sets, you can choose the type of animal that you are most comfortable fostering.
