Tuesday, November 29th, brings the biggest day of giving, where every dollar raised, means more to the animals and community of Dorchester County, than you know.
2022 has come with more challenges that our outdated shelter should face. The world has changed, times are harder than ever before for most, our community is being forced to surrender their pets at an unprecedented rate and our shelter has operated at max capacity for nearly the entire year.
One thing remains constant, our position within the animal-welfare industry proves to have a greater need than ever before. This year, Dorchester Paws will take in OVER 4,000 lost, abandoned, and neglected animals all requiring the proper animal and medical care, as soon as they arrive at Dorchester Paws up until we find them a home.
This Giving Tuesday, help Dorchester Paws raise $50,000 in honor of 50 years of saving lives.
