Street Paws hopes to raise at least $100,000 to cover expenses in our new shelter and assist in the day-to-day care of the animals in its program. This is one of many fundraisers to raise funds to cover expenses and help animals in our community The shelter will serve as a sanctuary for the feral dogs/cats that are rescued to live out their lives safely, reduce the number of unwanted dogs/cats being born on the streets and an adoption center for domestic pets. “It takes a village, and we need the public’s help to make this dream a reality."

Street Paws Mission Statement

Any animal we come across who finds themselves without a home will not go hungry or unloved. When funds and space allow, Street Paws will take the homeless animal under our wing, notify the proper authorities, network them, and try to find them a new home. We will care for and provide comfort and aid to homeless pets in a variety of ways. If the animal is tame, we will network to find a home for them. If the animal is feral, we will feed and care for the animal in its own environment. Every action will be taken to provide the animal(s) with a proper diet and bedding. Spaying and neutering these ferals is of great importance to us. We will do what we can to ensure the feral population will be kept to a minimum. We also seek to educate pet owners about the importance of spaying and neutering, annual vaccinations, and the importance of a true commitment to their pet as a family member to help ensure their pet does not become another homeless statistic as well.
