What your donations do for PAHS
Your gifts are essential to the work PAHS does on behalf of animals. As a 501(c)3 charitable organization, PAHS is funded entirely by donations, which are tax-deductible. Your contributions support PAHS programs in intervention, to assist animals in immediate need; education, to foster compassion among people of all ages; and advocacy, to encourage humane practices among public and private enterprises.
The Daisy Fund, established by a generous PAHS donor in honor of her beloved rescued dog named Daisy, provides assistance for animals whose owners cannot afford their pets’ urgent care and for stray pets in need. The fund prevents sick or injured animals from being surrendered to a shelter or euthanized for lack of means. Through the Daisy Fund, PAHS has been able to help many animals who otherwise would have gone without veterinary care. The Daisy Fund, like other PAHS programs, continues to benefit animals through additional donations from compassionate people like you. Every gift counts.
Humane education creates communities that care about animals. Your donation to PAHS’ education programs supports outreach to children and adults on animal care and the ethical treatment of animals. See our education page for the variety of ways PAHS works to create compassionate communities. Humane education is the path to animal welfare.
