Through the work of Animalert volunteers, we occasionally come across companion animals that find themselves in a very difficult situation.
They may have...
- serious or debilitating disease or injuries
- a family tragedy causing abandonment or transfer of care to Animalert
- guardians who can no longer look after their pet(s)
- other unfortunate situations that result in a pet's surrender to us
With our Sponsor-a-Pet Program, benefactors who step forward will have the opportunity to help a specific companion animal in need.
What You'll Get When Sponsoring A Pet
If you sponsor one of our adoptable pets (dog or cat), Animalert will send you the following details about the animal all the way to adoption & placement of the sponsored pet in a permanent family home.
- A profile of the animal describing the circumstances that resulted in our rescue taking the animal into our care.
- Progress reports throughout its adoption journey regarding interventions & treatments.
- And recent pictures of the animal from his foster family
Sponsors will also receive a tax receipt for their donation of $20 or more.
For Corporate Benefactors
In addition to receiving progress reports, all corporate benefactors will be highlighted at the bottom of this page of our website (with a link to their business website) plus positive promotion on our social media platforms.
