We have no paid staff, so your gift goes to what the dogs need: food, vet care, warm kennels and the drive home.

Every amount has a job. Monthly gifts matter most, because they let us plan ahead and say yes to more dogs.

More ways to give

Not every gift has to be a card payment. These all make a real difference.

Join Farm Friends

Our monthly givers. Even $10 a month keeps a dog fed, and you'll get a short update from the barn every month.

Give monthly

Sponsor a kennel

$1,000 covers a kennel run for a year. We'll put a plaque with your name, or your dog's name, on the door.

Ask about sponsoring

Give in memory

Honor a person or a pet who meant a lot to you. We'll send a card to their family if you'd like.

Make a tribute gift

Workplace matching

Many employers match donations. Ask your HR team, and we'll send any paperwork they need.
