A Love Letter to Los Angeles
— Julie Castle’s Blog
"You’ve given so much to the world and you’ve given so much to me and to Best Friends Animal Society. You’re our second home and have been for decades. And today you are in pain, and your pain is on display for the world to see. You, who have given yourself so generously and without limit, need all of us now perhaps more than ever."
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.
