Stay Home Save Lives

Faithful Friends Animal Society is happy to announce Stay Home, Save Lives, a non-event (or event-less fundraiser) which will maximize the lifesaving impact to the animals in our care by eliminating overhead costs associated with organizing our traditional spring gala.

Invitations to participate in Stay Home, Save Lives were sent to over 10,000 supporters and will be distributed throughout the community; and online and email promotions were distributed to tens of thousands email subscribers and social media followers.

We are asking our supporters to consider what they would typically spend on gala tickets, a new dress, suit, babysitter, pet sitter, and transportation - and instead enjoy a cozy night at home with their pet(s) and donate that money to Faithful Friends to help save more animals!

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. More details can be found under the What We Do.
