📸🐾HELP SPONSOR OUR CAMERAS?! 🐾📸

Our cameras are a HUGE part of every rescue. They are literally our eyes 24/7, watching feeding stations, monitoring traps, tracking patterns, and letting us know when a missing pet is finally where we need them to be.

Last year, we were incredibly fortunate to have our camera costs sponsored by a very generous donor. ❤️ Starting in October, that sponsorship ends and Paws of Hope will once again be responsible for the monthly cost:

💰 $437.54 EVERY MONTH

That’s a big expense for our rescue, but these cameras are something we simply cannot do this work without.

🐾 Want to help sponsor our cameras?
Every single dollar helps!
