Fundraising

Power your lifesaving with data-backed fundraising.

You need to bring financial resources in on an ongoing basis in order to save pets’ lives. There are many ways to do this — grants, events, digital solicitations, and developing relationships with major donors, just to name a few. No matter the approach, it will be essential to back your fundraising with data that shows how donations will impact saving animals’ lives and/or lead to a reduction in the number of cats and dogs killed in shelters.
