Giving to the Animals
Meaningful ways you can donate
The Sacramento SPCA is an independent, local non-profit organization and is not affiliated with any other local or national animal organization. We are dependent on donations of all kinds to continue our work on behalf of the animals.
Your support is greatly appreciated.
Foster Care: Help Us Help Them
Foster care volunteers provide temporary care for kittens, puppies, dogs and cats. Some animals may only need a home for several days, while others may need several months of care. By offering your time, energy, and home to an animal in need, you prepare an animal for adoption into a permanent home as well as prevent overcrowding in our shelter.
The Sacramento SPCA is always looking for foster families. Learn more by watching the short video and reviewing information found below.
For Pets’ Sake Program
The Sacramento SPCA’s For Pets’ Sake Program has placed more than 100 doghouse-shaped donation canisters in businesses throughout the greater Sacramento region. The money raised from this program is used to supplement our lifesaving programs.
Projects for Students & Scouts
Students and scout troops needing community service hours for school or badge projects are encouraged to help the Sacramento SPCA by completing one of our community service projects. Your hard work will make a difference in the lives of the animals in our care!
Volunteer Spotlight
Nancy
Nancy’s Nomination, “Nancy’s face is one I see around
the shelter on a daily basis. She seems to be everywhere:
smiling, offering support, whipping out a dog treat, having deep
conversations with dachshunds, you name it!! She has so
many roles as a volunteer, I can’t even keep them all straight,
but she seems to help out with everything! She brightens the day
and lightens the load and we are so lucky to have her!”
