Philadoptables 2015 Year in Review

thank you

This is what YOU and Philadoptables accomplished in 2015:

-Tens of thousands of pounds of donated pet food, kitty litter, toys, & treats for ACCT Philly’s pet food pantry serving hundreds of city residents in need -Over 1,000lbs. of donated linens

-Built a permanent roof on the shelter dog play yard we built

-Purchased and donated thousands of dollars worth of food and supplies to ACCT Philly’s amazing rescue partners -Hosted a kitten shower and provided foster parents with KMR, cat food, kitty meds, and blankets!

-Held a ‘how to ‘session of kitten care

-Hosted a breakfast for all the transport volunteers – the angels that drive dogs and cats from the shelter to safety!

-During kitten season we stocked the shelter with heating pads, pate’, kitten milk replacer, a scale, and more!

-Spreading the word about Philly’s adoptable animals through social media promotion and adoption/other events (like Camp Out For Hunger, Family Fun Day, July 4th parade, Thanksgiving Day Parade, and more!!)

-Donations of Kongs, adopt me vests, a dog scale, a beautiful mural on the shelter’s wall, Universal microchip scanner, and more

THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts for every donation, every kind word, and for all of the help you have all given us. As Philadoptables moves into the next year we plan on doing EVEN MORE!

Philadoptables Celebrates Giving Tuesday

givingtuesdaylogo

Tuesday December 1st is Giving Tuesday — a special day set aside for Non-Profits to ask for online donations to support their mission.

We are so appreciative of your willingness to help us and donate to our mission of helping homeless animals in Philadelphia and the surrounding communities.

We have had every kind of fundraiser that we can think of and we are so appreciative of your willingness to help us and donate to our mission of helping homeless animals in Philadelphia and the surrounding communities.

So we want to save you from begging your friends and family to buy things they don’t want.

Nobody has to get stuck with “stuff.”

Click on the PayPal button below and choose an amount you (or your friends) would be spending on something you don’t want.

Everything goes to the animals 100%. Your PayPal receipt shows your donation – just in time for an end-of-year charity deduction.

For example:

$15 I don’t need another animal themed t-shirt so here is the money I would have spent on it.

$25 I don’t want to hit up friends, family, and co-workers to buy candles, jewelry, or magazines. Here is the money you would have spent on that candle.”

$50 I don’t want to walk, hike, or run in any activity that has the word ‘thon’ in it. Here is the money I would have spent on my registration fee (and how much people would pay to sponsor me).

$75 I don’t want to make another raffle basket for your fundraiser so here is the money I would have spent buying all the stuff to go in it.

$ You choose! I am making this donation to express my appreciation for having nothing to buy, sell or do besides send in this form and my donation to Philadoptables.

Philadoptables and Puro-Tec complete construction on a play yard roof for the dogs!

play yard collage

It all started in April 2012 with a request from the shelter director to make a dog play yard for the homeless pups of Philadelphia. From there we built five more but our project has been incomplete this whole time. There were many distractions, setbacks, and much frustration but we are proud to say that the play yard roof at the shelter has been completed!! There is now a roof so that dogs can exercise, play, and relax in any weather. We could not have done this alone, there are countless people to thank. We would like to thank Petco Foundation and our amazing supporters who donated to this project. We also need a give a HUGE thank you to our friends at Puro-Tec LTD for getting this project completed! They went through hours of back and forth with the city to get the correct permits and never gave up! They also donated their general contracting time to oversee this project through to completion. THANK YOU!
Philadoptables is pleased to donate the space to the volunteers and homeless dogs of Philadelphia!
