Our Funds

Brownie's Care Fund

Brownie’s Care Fund supports the pets in our care by funding essential services including shelter medicine, adoption, foster, and behavior programs.

Thanks to quick response, Brownie, a resilient dog who survived two gunshot wounds and an amputation, lived out his days surrounded by love. Created in his memory, this fund helps pets heal, grow, and find homes.

Give today to help pets like Brownie thrive!

Lucy's Community Fund

The Lucy Community Fund supports outreach programs like Kibble Connection (our pet food pantry), PAW Plus (free basic veterinary care), and humane education initiatives for first responders and people of all ages.

Named for Lucy Gaga—our first therapy dog and the heart of our outreach efforts—this fund continues her legacy of connection and compassion.

Donate now to support pets and people in our community, just like Lucy did!
