How do I sponsor a pet?

Here’s your opportunity to help a homeless pet in the Foster Pet Outreach foster care program without sharing your sofa. Every animal in our program is assured a safe home with proper food and care while in our supervision, but sponsors help us financially care for our foster pets. Generous donations keep our adoption fee reasonable. Sponsoring is a financial commitment to a foster pet until they are adopted.

1. Choose the pet you would like to sponsor from the Foster Roster or let us choose one for you.

2. Tell us how much you would like to donate each month toward your foster pet. You may designate your sponsorship as a memorial or gift to honor a special animal lover in your life (be sure to give us their name and address so we can notify them of your gift).

    Ideas for donation amounts:

• $10 a month buys a heartworm pill.
• $15 a month buys dog or cat food.
• $35 a month buys heartworm pills and food.
• $50 a month buys heartworm pills, food and toys.

Prefer to give a one time gift?

• $20 for one vaccination.
• $34 pays for a heartworm test.
• $36 covers a feline leukemia test.
• $100 purchases a spay or neuter for a foster animal.

3. Send your sponsorship checks to:

How is sponsoring different from fostering? Sponsoring is a financial commitment to a foster pet until they are adopted. Fostering is allowing a pet to live in your home until they are adopted.
