Workplace giving: Give at work to save more animals

Donating through your employer's workplace giving program is a simple and effective way to help homeless pets.

What is workplace giving? When you make a gift through your employer's workplace giving program, many companies will match your donation as their employee — doubling or tripling the impact of your gift and saving even more lives.

Best Friends Animal Society participates in workplace giving campaigns in companies throughout the country, including the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC #42164), state employee campaigns, and several hundred corporate campaigns. Look for us in your company’s workplace giving program or start giving now.

Your workplace gift brings hope to homeless pets

Employers often match gifts like yours through workplace giving programs, and that means the added contribution to Best Friends goes straight to work helping even more animals — both at our animal sanctuary in southern Utah and all around the country.

In addition to founding and running the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals, Best Friends operates lifesaving programs around the U.S. We're working to end the killing in shelters by offering low-cost spay/neuter services, running community cat programs, and providing resources to help keep pets in their homes with the families who love them.

The support and devotion of people like you help make this lifesaving work possible.

Increase your lifesaving impact

When giving in the workplace, you could be doubling or tripling the reach of your gift and making an even greater impact on the lives of homeless pets.

The benefits of workplace giving don't stop there; some companies match gifts made by retirees and/or spouses, too. Many employers also offer volunteer matching programs, turning your time spent volunteering into even more lifesaving support for homeless pets.

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
