Every pet deserves love, care, and a chance at a healthy life. At Rogue Valley Street Dogs, we're dedicated to making this possible for pets living with unhoused or very low-income individuals in our community. By contributing to our organization, you help fund and facilitate essential support services, including spay-neuter programs, wellness care, and access to food and supplies. Your donation to Rogue Valley Street Dogs is essential to providing this much-needed care to pets in need within our community.
Our Mission: To fund and facilitate spay-neuter and essential support services to improve the lives of pets living in poverty.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we rely on the generosity of donors like you to continue our mission. Your donation makes it possible to provide critical services to those who need it most, preventing countless pets from entering the shelter system and keeping them safe with the people who love them. Together, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of pets and their owners in our community.
As of 2022, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development estimated that there are about 582,462 unhoused individuals in the United States. Additionally, nearly 11.6% of people in the U.S. live in poverty. For these people, a companion dog or cat provides many benefits to their owners, from being a reason to get up each day to providing a much-needed snuggle after a difficult day. For many, their pet is their only constant and dependable companion.
In addition to limiting unwanted litters that end up overcrowding our local animal shelters, our spay and neuter services, veterinary clinics, vaccination vouchers, and other resources help keep these pets healthy and together with their owners.
