Thank you for considering a gift to Animal
Welfare Society, Inc. (AWS). Financial support from generous donors like
you is critical to continue our programs of rescue, care, and placement
of the roughly 500 pets saved each year.
Your gift today will provide urgent care to
homeless and abandoned pets right now, when they need it most. With your
support, Animal Welfare Society, Inc., can rescue animals and help them
recover and thrive, while they patiently await adoption into their
loving and permanent homes. One-time gifts are appreciated and welcome,
and recurring gifts make what we do possible by sustaining our
organization and our efforts.
We offer two categories of gifts to help you achieve your charitable goals:
While every animal at the shelter is available for adoption to the right home, some are more challenging to place and could potentially never find a home. To help these "special-needs animals" and to also support all of our animals until they find their forever homes, we've created the AWS
Sponsor-a-Pet Program
.
By making a one-time gift or a recurring donation of $20 or more, donors can contribute to the care of these pets until they find the right adopter or family. While one-time donations are appreciated, recurring gifts provide consistent support, showing year-round care and concern for our furry friends. Your monthly contributions will ensure that your chosen pet receives ongoing care for as long as they need it.
As a
Sponsor-A-Pet Contributor
, your name will be displayed under your chosen pet's photo for the length of your sponsorship (1 month, 3 months, etc.) Once your chosen pet is adopted, if your sponsorship is still active, you can select another pet to complete your sponsorship.
Some of the animals we rescue have been hurt or injured; strays and abandoned animals are often hit by vehicles on the road or experience another type of trauma. Donations to this fund will be restricted to animal medical emergencies. When you become a monthly sponsor of the Medical Emergency Fund you will receive a quarterly update of all the medical emergency pets.
Our Seniors for Seniors program enables senior citizens with limited resources experience the joy of pet companionship. Research shows that caring for an animal such as a dog or cat can boost a senior individual’s self-confidence and improve their health and overall quality of life. AWS will waive 100% of the fee so that a senior citizen (age 60 and older) can adopt a senior cat or dog (age 8 years or older).
