About Us
The Pet Fund Donations
We
need your help.
The Pet Fund is supported by donations from
individuals, corporate sponsorships, and foundation grants. Your
contribution will have a significant impact on the lives of
companion animals and their owners.
Your donations save lives.
Each donation
significantly increases the funds available for animal medical
care assistance. The Pet Fund is an all-volunteer nonprofit, so
your gifts will directly benefit companion animals nationwide. Help
keep animals out of shelters.
In donating to The Pet Fund,
you will be both helping to keep pets out of shelters and affecting
the welfare of animals far into the future. We appreciate your
generosity and your devotion to companion animals everywhere.
Ways to donate to The Pet Fund: There are many kinds of
giving
options, and the staff of The Pet Fund is happy to answer any
questions you might have about donations. You may also donate to The Pet Fund online by clicking on the

Individual Donations. All donations to The Pet Fund are completely tax-deductible. Individual donations at the $200 level can choose from among our donor gift basket for a donor appreciation gift! Gift basket options below!
Making a Named Gift is one way to honor the memory of our
companion animals by establishing a special named fund to be used
for animal medical care. This is a special way of leaving a
personal legacy which will benefit pets in need. You may also want
to consult your tax advisor, financial advisor, or attorney about
planned giving advice.
Gifts of Stocks allow you to avoid capital gains taxes in
addition to the charitable income tax deduction, while generously
supporting the work of The Pet Fund.
Charitable Remainder Trusts are charitable gifts of cash,
securities, or other assets such as real estate which are put into
a trust. These assets are then invested to generate income, which
is paid annually to you and to the beneficiaries of your choosing.
This is another way of making a gift which provides you with
income for life.
Charitable Gift Annuities offer you another way to make a
significant gift to The Pet Fund while providing for your own
financial future. In addition, income tax deductions as well as
reduced estate taxes make this an appealing gift option.
Making a Gift of Life Insurance by naming The Pet Fund as
your beneficiary or by contributing the value of the policy by
giving ownership of your policy to The Pet Fund creates another
income tax deduction option.
Making a Bequest to The Pet Fund in Your Will or Living Trust
is another planned giving option which would support The Pet Fund.
This gift can be specific monetary donations, other assets such as
stocks, or real estate. Gifts can be directed to: The Pet Fund,
2747 14th Street, Sacramento, CA 95818.
Corporate Sponsorships. Corporations donating to The Pet
Fund receive not only the benefits of tax-deductible giving but
also increased national visibility as businesses who care about
companion animals and their communities. Our website receives
thousands of visitors and our network of veterinarians, pet
owners, and corporate sponsors have the opportunity to learn about
your organization and the services you provide. Each resource
helps our applicants as well as our donors to become educated
about the options available for preventative care, financial
assistance resources, and helpful products. We appreciate your
continued support of our important work!

and corporate sponsors of The Pet Fund!

4. Signed copy of Tails of Devotion by Emily Scott
Pottruck. This
book uses photographs and notes to tell the tales of some of the
relationships between pets and their companions. "In February 2000, Andy, my first born, a five and a half
pound Yorkshire Terrier, was attacked by a 100 pound Husky. At first, the
doctors thought his neck and back were broken. They wanted to put him down
but they soon realized that they would have to put me down at the same
time . .
This experience provided the inspiration for this book:
"the devotion between people and the animals that we live with, care for,
and are cared by . . . " This book does what few books on animals manage to do,
which is to attempt to raise the level of human consciousness about the
necessity for relationships with companion animals and the sacredness of
those bonds.
