Your Gift Keeps Our Door Open
Since 1931, the APF has provided compassionate care for our community’s unwanted animals. As an Open Door shelter, we accept every animal that comes to us in need. When other organizations turn animals away because they don’t fit their adoption profile, they often end up here. It is our commitment to the animals and to our community to provide a haven for those who have no place else to go. As an independent, nonprofit organization funded only by donations, your support helps to ensure that our door continues to stay open to all animals by helping to provide shelter, veterinary care, spay/neuter services and hope for thousands of homeless pets each year. Your tax deductible donation is our lifeline and will be put to its very best use for the animals. Donors will receive our newsletter, the PetGazette. To learn more about giving opportunities, please call 374-3944, ext. 113.
