Donations: The Gift of Hope

Your donations are what keep CVHS going. We are a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization that relies on your donations, membership dues, and service fees to cover our operating costs. Your tax-deductible donation will help feed and provide shelter to animals and support the services and outreach programs that CVHS provides to those in need. We accept donations via check, credit card or online. Special arrangements can be made to accept stocks, estate bequests or other special gifts. Please contact CVHS for more information.

You say you want to help homeless animals without scooping poop? Check out these ways to help them while they wait for a new home:

Birthday/Holiday Gift Donations
A unique way to honor and recognize a loved one's spirit and caring for animals. Many of our members give donations to the society in lieu of gifts on birthdays and holidays. Unless otherwise requested, we send a letter to both the donor and recipient notifying them of the contribution.
Guardian Angel Program
Your annual donation of $120.00 provides food, shelter and veterinary care for the animals residing at the shelter. Your support is recognized with an "Angel Plaque" engraved to your specifications as well as being featured in each CVHS newsletter. These plaques are a wonderful way to honor your favorite animal lover or to memorialize a beloved pet. And best of all, your plaque will hang in our lobby as an inspiration to those who may be searching for their own way to help. Guardian Angels also receive a lapel pin designed by Anne Davis to display your support for homeless animals in the community.

In Memorial
Individuals and families often request that donations be sent to CVHS in lieu of flowers. Notification of the contribution will be sent to both the donor and the family notifying them of the donation.
Lifetime Gifts
Planned estate donations will ensure that the shelter continues to serve homeless pets right here in your community for many years to come.
 
Pet Pal Sponsor
Donate $20.00 a month to provide care for a pet awaiting adoption. Sponsors will receive a picture and information about the cat, dog, rabbit or rodent. As well, a red heart with the sponsor's name on it will adorn the pet's quarters here at our shelter. Your name will also appear on the description of the animal on our website (unless you prefer to remain anonymous).
Donate a Pet Bed to Shelter
Kuranda provides its dog beds directly to animal shelters and rescue groups at our lowest wholesale prices. They have created the “Donate A Bed” program which enables individuals to donate beds to the shelter of their choice at discounted prices as well. Just select CVHS from the drop down bar from the donate page and follow the instructions. The donation will be sent directly to CVHS in your name. Your donation is 30% to 35% off of the retail prices.
