With 2026 now in full swing, we wanted to pause for a second and reflect on how much you, our community, mean to Paws for Hope.

You’ve heard a lot from us over the last few months as we’ve overcome struggles and found innovative ways to keep people and their pets together. 

You’ve heard about the kinds of challenges that can leave pet families in impossible situations, facing the fear of separation without support. 

And of course you’ve heard the incredible stories of pets like Leo, Obi, Honey, Chewy, Craig and more who received life-saving veterinary care and support, along with the impact this has had on their loving families. 

Well we crunched the numbers and your response was incredible. A whopping 332 of you read our stories and chose to make a difference by making a generous donation!!!

And we’re forever grateful. 

Whether it was a recurring monthly gift, a special contribution during our year-end fundraising campaign, or a one-time donation inspired by one of our amazing clients’ stories, every dollar given will make a real impact on a pet family’s life this year. 

Paws for Hope Animal Foundation is a small team of just two full-time staff, and we are laser focused on helping every pet family who comes our way. 

Thanks to your generosity – that’s right you, our community, we will be able to say ‘yes’ to even more families who reach out to us this year as they overcome adversity. 

Like us, you know that pets are family members and that there is nothing in the world like the love and bond between people and the animals in their lives. Thank you for helping to keep that love alive!
