You have the power to give vulnerable and neglected animals their first happy holiday. By becoming an ASPCA Guardian, you can help rescue, rehabilitate and protect animals in need this holiday season and all year long. And for abused or abandoned animals, there's no better gift. Help them believe in second chances with a special monthly gift today.
The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals® works to save animals from dogfighting, puppy mills, hoarding and other cruelty situations. We provide animals medical care and behavioral rehabilitation, and help thousands of animals find loving homes every year. We respond to emergencies when disaster strikes, and fight for stronger laws to protect animals. When you become an ASPCA Guardian, your regular monthly gift allows us to spend less time fundraising—and more time saving lives.
