Why Give to NWAC?

  • We're accountable & transparent.

    We’re a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and have been since 2004, which means your donations are tax-deductible. We process online payments safely and securely using Stripe, and you receive a Give Lively donation receipt by email instantly. What could be easier?

  • We keep overhead costs low to keep quality of life high.

    We are completely volunteer-run and shelter the animals in our safe, loving homes. Without salaries to pay or expensive facilities to rent, we channel our funds toward what matters most: veterinary care and supplies that directly benefit the animals!

  • We save animals with nowhere else to go.

    We’re not afraid to take animals with medical and behavioral needs that many local shelters won’t accept, filling an essential need in the community. Five-week-old kittens with panleukopenia? Senior dogs who need knee replacements? Been there, saved them!

  • We help animals from around (and even outside) the U.S.

    We’re based in the northwest but we heed the call to help animals no matter where they’re found. We’ve rescued pets from all over Oregon, Washington, Hawaii, California, Louisiana, and even Mexico.

  • We find the absolute best forever homes.

    By fostering pets in our homes, we truly love and know them — their personalities, quirks, and what they need to be safe, happy, and healthy. This helps us find adopters best equipped to love and nurture pets for life, not just for now.

  • We prevent beloved pets from entering rescue.

    Sometimes, dedicated pet parents may experience temporary hardships that force them to surrender their animals to rescue. We offer support and grants to get families through these tough times, preventing pets from going into the shelter system.
