- Fundraise for our efforts - we need creative, driven people to find ways to fundraise for our organization…every little bit helps tremendously in our efforts to reduce the homeless pet population! Hold garage sales, sell candy bars, collect change, sell craft items…it doesn’t have to be complicated. We are open to all ideas – every penny helps save a life! Please contact christina@wishuponapaw.org or emilyv@wishuponapaw.org if you are interested in helping the Fundraising Team!
- Volunteer - we will soon be updating the site with volunteer opportunities to help at our events and with our Trap-Neuter-Return programs and other efforts.
- Foster a homeless pet - we are in need of foster care homes to care for homeless cats or kittens temporarily until we can find new forever homes for them. We provide all medical care, food and supplies for their stay. All you need is a small spare room – we could not save their lives without our foster care homes!
- Our greatest need: donations to care for the homeless cats and kittens we take in – we feed only high-quality food and adhere to high standards of veterinary care until they are adopted. You can make a secure donation online by clicking this button:
