There are big things happening for homeless pets this month, and I’m so excited to share the good news with you.
Right now, two generous donors have pledged a $200,000 gift for the animals — and we need 300 compassionate people like you to become monthly donors (we call them Guardian Angels) by July 6 to unlock it.
Every day, homeless dogs and cats count on consistent support from kindhearted animal lovers just like you. When you sign up to become a Guardian Angel, you not only give vulnerable pets consistent, steady support where it’s needed most, but you also provide them with the chance of a happier tomorrow.
Pets like Rydell are proof of what Guardian Angels make possible.
When Rydell arrived at Best Friends, he was frightened and struggling to trust people after enduring a difficult past. Loud environments overwhelmed him, and he needed patience, specialized care, and time to feel safe again. Thanks to Guardian Angels, Rydell received individualized training and support tailored to his needs, helping him slowly build confidence and learn that people could be kind.
Friend, as a Guardian Angel, your ongoing support ensures:
Nutritious meals, veterinary care, and safe places for homeless pets
Spay/neuter surgeries to reduce the number of pets entering shelters
Individualized behavioral training and enrichment for animals like Rydell
Emergency rescue and disaster response when pets are in crisis
Training, grants, and mentorship to a network of over 6,000 shelters and rescue organizations working to save more lives and help the country reach no-kill
Advocacy work that keeps at-risk pets out of shelters and safe with their families
And right now, your monthly gift can go even further by helping unlock an additional $200,000 for the animals. A monthly gift may feel simple, but together Guardian Angels create lifesaving change every single day. In fact, nearly 4 million dogs and cats were saved in U.S. shelters last year alone thanks to animal lovers just like you who are committed to a kinder, gentler future.
Thank you for everything you do for homeless pets. Because of animal lovers like you, nearly 40 million dogs and cats have been saved since 2016, when we first committed to leading the nation to no-kill. Together, we can continue to build a brighter future for our best friends. Together, we can Save Them All.
