Bid for Pets: Support Animals Lifesaving Care

Healing Touch Fund: Helping Animals in Need of Special Medical Care

Donations to the Healing Touch Fund offset the cost of special medical treatments that go beyond our standard care plan. These expenses add up to over $130,000 annually, but we cannot imagine turning our backs on these animals.

During Bid for Pets we are are asking for support for our Healing Touch Fund to support animals emergency and lifesaving care. All proceeds from the auction will help us reach our $50,000 campaign goal, PLUS ALL DONATIONS WILL BE MATCHED, so $100,000 will be raised for animals in need of critical care. Of the thousands of cats and dogs, we care for each year, over 200 will need emergency, life-saving care, and treatment. Your support will help save their lives. Thanks to your support, we have a skilled veterinary team on staff that is able to help many of these animals in-house, decreasing outside expenses. Still, there are many pets with needs that go beyond what we can provide at our shelter.

Despite all the challenges we face relating to the health pandemic, Faithful Friends continues to provide life-saving services for animals in need each and every day. This year, we are also celebrating 21 years of serving the community! We continue to help thousands of cats and dogs each year and with each one, we are reminded of the impact YOU have helped us make over the last two decades.

THANK YOU, for being a part of Bid for Pets to Support Animals Lifesaving Care; every dollar make a difference, saves lives, and supports an organization you love!

Faithful Friends Animal Society is a private, nonprofit animal welfare organization with a No Kill shelter and community veterinary clinic. All animals in our care stay with us until placed into new homes. We are funded through donations, grants, and fees for services. We allocate the majority of our budget (about 82%) for community programs and services.

Faithful Friends was born out of a moral imperative to expose the mass killing of cats and dogs entering Delaware’s publicly funded shelters. For two decades, our advocacy has vastly improved outcomes for shelter animals, saving thousands of easily adoptable, trainable, and treatable pets from certain death. With an unflagging commitment to our mission, we continue to advocate for reform, save lives, and reduce pet relinquishment through our local programs and services.

Programs and services include rescue and adoption, vaccine clinics, spay/neuter clinics, free pet food & supply bank, pet therapy services, and community outreach.
