Ways to Donate

Furever Home Dog Sanctuary welcomes gifts of any size. Through the generous support of donors, FHDS will be able to construct a brand new facility to house the dogs most in need- dogs who are deemed “unadoptable” due to their age, their breed, or their medical challenges.  These dogs sometimes languish in shelters for years, unable to experience the joys that life has to offer.  Things that many dog owners take for granted such as snuggling up with their owners, feeling the jubilance of greeting their owners at the door when they return from an errand, or simply walking around a home.  Instead, these dogs are often forced to live almost continuously in a small crate with barely any social or physical interactions.  Your donations will help to change all of that.  FHDS is classified by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) organization, EIN 88-0543157. Contributions are tax-deductible to the full extent allowed by law.

None of your donations go toward any Board or any committee member.  This ensures that all funds are distributed to serve the greatest needs. When you support the FHDS, your impact is real and visible.
