Join Our Fall FUNdraising Season for Shelter Pets |
We’ve got a critical situation at the shelter. We’re completely full with many pets staying with us longer, requiring more care, and needing extra help to thrive and find their forever homes. Our Dogtoberfest FUNdraising season is the main way we can fund essential programs like our Animal Advocacy Program that helped our Dogtoberfest mascot, Outlaw, go from at-risk to being adopted. This annual fundraiser is so important because Friends is not compensated by the City of Upland for operating the open-intake, municipal Upland Animal Shelter. Instead, we rely on the generosity of everyone who believes in saving the lives of abandoned animals who enter the shelter through no fault of their own.We invite you to support these essential programs during Dogtoberfest and give every shelter animal the hope of a better life. Our goal is to raise $40,000 by November 3. Any donation amount helps. Plus, when you donate $25 or more, you are eligible to win one of the amazing grand prizes in our online raffle (see below). We are thrilled that many of you and our generous matching donors helped us meet our matching donation goal - and thank you to everyone who came to Dogtoberfest Day and made it a great success! However, our Dogtoberfest goal to fund our life-saving programs is $60,000, and we haven’t met this goal yet. We're at $54,954. With only a few more days to go before Dogtoberfest ends, we need your support to reach $60,000. Please donate today! Shelter pets are depending on you. |
