The unsung heroes who keep animal shelters running
“The path to no-kill runs through your doors, and because of you, those doors keep opening wider every day.” Read Julie's full blog post
No-kill is within reach, thanks to you
Today, 2 out of 3 U.S. shelters are no-kill, and hundreds more are within reach of that goal.
Working together, we can continue to save the lives of homeless pets in communities like yours — and nationwide — ensuring that the places we call home are better for everyone, pets included.

Adopt
When you adopt a pet from a rescue group or animal shelter instead of buying from a breeder or puppy mill, you’re providing a lifesaving second chance.
Volunteer
Wherever you live, whatever your experience or interests, there are countless ways to volunteer your time for pets in need.
Take Action
You can help create the kind of community you want to live in by teaming up with fellow community members to support progressive pet programs and policies.
Make a planned gift
Make a gift through your will, trust, or other financial plan. Planned gifts can reduce income tax and offer substantial tax savings on appreciated properties and securities.
Pet memorials
Honor a beloved pet with a gift in their memory. You'll also be invited to find comfort and healing by taking part in one of our Angels Rest blessing ceremonies.
Make a donor-advised fund gift
A donor-advised fund (DAF) provides you with the flexibility to support the animals through Best Friends while enjoying some favorable tax benefits.
Let’s be friends!
Connect with us on social media to stay in the loop about the lifesaving progress we’re making together.
Thank you to the brands that love our pets, too:
