Financial Donations

As a non-profit, we do not receive any county, state or public funding. We rely solely on compassionate people like you to help us care for our rescued animals. And, being a 501(c)(3) means any donations are tax-deductible!

Also, being 100% volunteer-run, you also know that any donations go directly to supporting our animals.

Thank you very much for considering donating to us!

Special Types of Financial Donations

  • How much does it cost to adopt?
    Adoption fees are posted on the info pages for both cats and dogs. Fees go towards the cost of veterinary care, vaccinations, spay/neutering, microchipping for all of the animals that we care for.
  • I didn't get a confirmation email on my adoption application. What do I do?
    Uh oh! We're sorry for the confusion - confirmation emails should be automatically sent within a few minutes after you submitted your application. If you did not receive one, check your various email folders to make sure it didnt get marked as spam. The email should have been sent by "info@savingpaws.com" and have the subject line "Adoption Application Received". If you still cannot find the email, please feel free to reach out to cats@savingpawswi.com for cat adoptions, dogs@savingpawswi.com for dog adoptions, or use our contact us page to double check that we received the application.
  • How do I drop off physical donations?
    We have a no-contact donation shed that can be used - take a look at our donations page for details.
  • How do I donate to you online?
    There should be a red donate button at the top of our website - if you are on mobile, open the menu and scroll down to see it. The button should redirect you to our PayPal, alternatively, you can donate via: PayPal Directly: finance@savingpawswi.com Venmo: @savingpaws-animalrescue
  • Can I make a donation for a specific cause or in memory of someone?
    Yes! You can make both designated donations, where you indicate how you wish your donation to be used, as well as commemorative donations that are in honor of or in memory of someone. See our types of financial donations for details!
  • What kind of animals do you have?
    Saving Paws is a rescue that works with cats and dogs. We do not work with any other type of animals at this time.

Item Donations

We also appreciate item donations! In fact, when we are in desperate need of a specific item, you'll mostly likely see a post about it on our facebook page.

Donation Drop-Off Location

We have a no-contact donation shed so you can drop off donations whenever you'd like. When you pull into the driveway, the donation shed is towards the end and to the left. Look for a flag!
 
If you require a donation receipt, you'll find a clipboard within the shed that you can use to fill in your information. We will mail you your receipt.
 
If you need to donate something that can't be stored in the shed (ex: it needs to be refrigerated), please use the contact us page to schedule an appointment so that we can make sure we have a volunteer available to greet you.
