General Donations:  RCHS is a private shelter - we are not a government agency nor do we receive tax dollars for our operations.  We can only provide assistance to homeless animals if generous people donate to keep our doors open.  Every lifesaving donation is appreciated!

Honor/Memorial Tribute Gifts:  Make a donation in honor or memory of a beloved person or pet.  This gesture is perfect for celebrating the lives of those special people and animals that have touched our lives or for paying tribute to a special occasion or event.

Constant Companion Giving:  Join our monthly giving program that allows you to give conveniently and automatically with either your membership or as a standalone donation.  Our Constant Companions allow us to plan and budget in advance to use your donor dollars as efficiently as possible.

Help Me, Heal Me Fund: This fund provides emergency medical care and treatment for an individual animal above and beyond the shelter's normal ability to treat.  RCHS does not have a shelter veterinarian.

Animal Sponsorships: This program allows people to target a specific shelter animal with a donation and sponsorship message until its new adoptive home is found.

Planned Giving:  Estate gifts, commonly called "planned gifts," include bequests, securities, charitable trusts, life insurance, retirement accounts, and more.  Leave a legacy that continues your compassion and commitment to animal welfare. To discuss planned giving, please email our Executive Director, Angela Rhodes, or call (608) 752-5622.
