CONSTANT COMPANIONS CLUB – Become a monthly donor
Our Constant Companions Club is for loyal animal welfare supporters who want to provide ongoing care all year long for the homeless dogs and cats we rescue and place into loving homes. The Constant Companions Club makes it easy and affordable to give a monthly gift which adds up during the year to become a much larger donation overall, making a greater impact on animal homelessness in Pinellas County.
Your monthly gift will help us plan more effectively and provide financial strength so we can continue to save as many lives as possible! You can change or cancel your donation at any time.
