Give Love.
Save Lives.
So many ways to give —
all with one lifesaving mission.
Ways to Give
Every act of generosity helps save lives. Your gift provides urgent medical care, safe shelter, and a second chance for dogs and cats who might not otherwise have one.
Explore the ways you can make a difference below —
all are easy, secure, and lifesaving.
Give Financially
One-Time Gift
A one-time donation makes an immediate impact — providing lifesaving medical treatment, food, vaccinations, and safe housing for animals in need. Every dollar truly counts. You may also choose to make your donation recurring using the options on this form..
Monthly Giving — Become a Life Preserver
Life Preservers are our monthly donors — providing steady, reliable support that allows us to plan ahead, respond to emergencies, and say “yes” when animals need us most.
Monthly giving is optional and requires an intentional sign-up. If you’d like to become a Life Preserver, please use the dedicated monthly giving link below.
Tribute & Memorial Gifts
Celebrate someone special — a loved one or a cherished pet — by giving in their name. We can send a personalized message to acknowledge your thoughtful gift. Select “Tribute Gift” on the donation form to include a dedication or message.
Donor-Advised Funds
Support The Rescue Crew through a donor-advised fund (DAF). These contributions can offer significant tax benefits while making an even greater impact. You can initiate or record your DAF contribution using the donation form on this page.
Workplace Giving & Matching Gifts
Double your impact! Many employers match donations or include nonprofits like The Rescue Crew in workplace giving programs.
When making your gift, use the donation form to search for your employer — or, if you’ve already given, use the matching gift search tool below to see if your company will match your donation.
Sponsor a Pet or Support a Medical Case
Help an animal heal while they wait for their forever home. Your sponsorship provides food, medical care, and enrichment — giving them comfort, hope, and the best chance at a happy future.
Each sponsorship directly supports a specific animal or medical case, and you’ll receive updates on their journey along the way.
