All proceeds go to the Pets are Wonderful Support (PAWS) program. PAWS serves very low-income persons struggling with HIV/AIDS and their beloved pets to ensure that each person experiences the psychological and health benefits of pet ownership, while each pet receives unfettered access to the veterinarian care, food, and love they deserve.

Pets provide members reasons to take care of their health and provide a sense of security and warmth. Often, a pet is the one thing that keeps people motivated to keep going and get back into care with our assistance. If you ask Jeanie Vanier, PAWS Coordinator, "I help a member's pet. That's their child. Automatically there's this trusting relationship that will be there forever."

Cost: $25/person (we would love for you to raise it).
