Give an Animal a Safe Landing
Ellie arrived at PAWS scared, shut down, and unable to eat.
She needed someone like you.
Every $25 you give today helps give a cat or dog like Ellie immediate shelter, care, and comfort from the moment they arrive.
Some animals need more time to heal — your gift is what gives them that time to trust, recover, and find their family.
A generous donor is matching every gift dollar for dollar, up to $10,000, while funds last.
There is an animal waiting for someone like you right now.
Pet homelessness is on the rise. Communities are struggling.
You are how we meet this moment.
Watch Chilly’s story to see how your gift can change a life today.
Thank you to all our heroes!
