Host a Supply Drive

Engage your customers by hosting a pet supply drive at your business! Collect essential items on our wish list like food, toys, and blankets. It’s a great way to support pets in need while showcasing your commitment to the community. As a thank you, we’ll feature your business’s generosity on social media!

Volunteer as a Group

Bring your team together for a volunteer day! Group volunteering is a great way to build team morale while giving back to the community. Your team can help care for animals, assist with Adoption Center maintenance, participate in fundraising events, and more. We’re excited to recognize and celebrate volunteer groups on social media!

Fundraise for Paws4ever

Whether it’s through matching gifts, in-store promotions, or hosting a fundraiser, you can help pets in need while drawing attention to your business. Some ideas include: donate a percentage of sales during a special day, match donations made by customers, round-up at the register for Paws4ever, or make a matching gift for a campaign. Have an idea?
