2024 is almost over and the lost, abandoned, abused and neglected pets of Chelan and Douglas Counties need your help.

Give a gift today and help us reach our goal so that every pet in need gets the second chance they deserve in 2025.

Pets like Spud, a tiny puppy found on the edge of the road with a dangerously swollen face, infected eyes and nose, dirty and scared.

Thanks to supporters like you, Spud received the medical care he needed and is now recovering in a wonderful foster home. He got a second chance. Help thousands more like him get theirs and give a gift today!

Join us through the 2024 GiveNCW campaign and give thousands of homeless pets like Ralphie a second chance at a loving home. You make all the difference for these precious pets!
