Donate to help A No-Kill Animal Shelter!

Tax deductible
Hi! My name is Lilah, and I am 11 years old. I was inspired to make a GoFundMe for a no-kill animal shelter because I heard about how many animals die every year in the US because shelters don't have space for them (1.5 Million). It is also very important to me because I grew up with dogs and it would be so sad to think that one of my dogs could've been killed at a shelter. I also want to raise awareness because I think this cause can sometimes be overlooked, for example, I never knew that some shelters did this until about 5 days ago! Most people assume shelters to be good, and some of them are! But some shelters also kill animals just because of overcrowding. Did you know that 56% of dogs and 71% of cats that enter shelters are killed soon after? Isn't that sad? Want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money to benefit Best Friends Animal Society, an no-kill animal shelter. Any donation will help make an impact. Even if you can't donate, you can look at adopting some of their animals as well.
Best Friends Animal Society is working to save the lives of cat and dogs all across the country, giving pets second chances and happy homes. Just five years ago, nearly 1.5 million cat and dogs were being killed in America just because shelters didn't have the community support or the resources needed to save them. Best Friends is committed to change that by 2025, by operating the nation's largest sanctuary for homeless animals and working with shelters across the country. Together, we can Save Them All. Thank you for all your help!
