General Donations
Last year, we helped 1,647 animals receive the love, attention and medical care they needed. We also spayed and neutered nearly 2,700 dogs and cats in our community. This year, we would like to help many more, but we need your help. Your contribution will help us feed and care for animals looking for loving homes, rescue animals in need, and provide humane education to enrich the lives of individuals and animals alike.

Guardian Angel Fund
The Guardian Angel Fund makes miracles happen. Homeless animals with special needs are too often the ones left behind. The time, cost of care, and resources required can make it very difficult for most shelters to care for the ones who need it the most. SICSA's Guardian Angel Fund specifically helps adoptable animals become adoptable, with the generous help from people like you in our community. These animals are worthy of our help and love, and SICSA gives them another chance at finding a loving, forever home. Your gift provides care for the animals that need it the most.

Giving SICSA Guardianship of Pets
Many friends of the SICSA Pet Adoption Center who choose to make charitable contributions by bequest to the Center also ask about the possibility of entrusting their pet(s) to the care of SICSA after their death.
While SICSA’s first recommendation is to identify a trusted and willing friend or family member to care for your pet after your death, we recognize that this alternative is not always available. Therefore, the board and management of SICSA have adopted the following guidelines to help pet owners as they prepare their wills and consider their charitable giving.
