You Made Us Leap for Joy this #GivingTuesday

SHARE:

We are overwhelmed with gratitude. Together, we met our fundraising goal - the highest we've ever set!

Hundreds of you came together to do more to support animals than any one person could do alone. Thank you to everyone who donated, volunteered their time, engaged with us on social media, spread the word, and enjoyed the heartwarming tails we shared.

Because of you, we met our goal - the highest we've ever set! Thank you for providing compassion, healing, and new beginnings to the thousands of animals who come through our doors each year. We could not do this without you!

We would like to give a special thank you to our $60,000 Matching Gift Challengers for inspiring such generosity with their combined matching gift - the largest we've ever had!
