We Need You.
When you give back, our community moves forward.
Why your gift matters
CARE (Companions and Animals for Reform and Equity) is America’s first national Black, Indigenous, and People of Color animal welfare organization. Founded in 2020, we exist because the field wasn’t built for the communities we come from.
Your gift funds the work of changing that: keeping families and their pets together, building trust where traditional shelters have failed, and proving that animal welfare led by the community — not around it — works. Every dollar goes directly toward that mission. Thank you for being part of it.
Make a Gift
CARE is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Gifts are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
