Demonstrate your social corporate responsibility to your staff, community and consumers 

By supporting PAWS through a charitable business partnership, you will be helping people in your community and saving the lives of animals too!

PAWS is a completely volunteer-run organization helping in 3 key ways:

1) Subsidizing veterinary care for pets belonging to low-income and at-risk owners across Southwest Ontario,

2) Offering educational materials and advice to improve the welfare of companion animals, decrease the incidence and severity of untreated issues, and reduce the overall cost of pet ownership,

3) Supporting community agencies in creating pet-friendly solutions for their programs and shelters.

Why Partner with Us to Support Families in Your Community?

Business Partners enable us to plan for the future, expand our programs, reach more areas, and help people and their animal companions in your community when they need it most. 

In addition, a business partnership will:
 Demonstrate your compassion for the well-being of animals and the needs of low-income and at-risk pet owners
 Demonstrate your involvement in the community
 Increase your brand awareness and loyalty
 Add value to your company in the eyes of your customers
 Boost employee morale

Our programs serve urgent needs in your local community:
  • Access to vet care despite inadequate income. 
  • Mental health support by eliminating traumatic loss or inability to care for a pet due to crisis or financial reasons.
  • Solutions for pets of people entering shelter/hospital or fleeing violence

Our approach is to facilitate the right preventive care (spay, neuter, vaccinations, parasites..) as well as required medical treatments without delay. This reduces pressure on downstream resources such as rescues and animal control agencies, eases trauma and heartbreak for families and ensures much less suffering and possible euthanasia of pets.

If you represent a business whose mission, or passion, aligns with ours, consider talking to us about a partnership.
