Since 2012, The Companion Project has been providing support to rescues, shelters, and welfare organizations nationwide dedicated to keeping animals happy, healthy and out of harm’s way.
Our Mission
Despite a deep commitment to saving as many animal lives as possible, many organizations are forced to spend too much time fundraising, drawing time and resources away from their core missions. That’s where we come in. The Companion Project identifies underfunded organizations where financial support is lacking and lends a hand so they can focus on what they do best.
Through a program of online and offline fundraising efforts, we take in donations that get dispersed to underfunded animal organizations. Every dime we raise is strategically placed in order to do the most possible good. We’re transparent in our endeavors, letting you know exactly where your donations are going and the impact they make.
“The worst sin toward our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them: that’s the essence of inhumanity. ”
