It’s that time of year again!

WHAT IS IT?

GiveSTL is an online day of giving where nonprofits (like us!) reach out to their supporters to help them in their mission. Since it’s inception in 2014, GiveSTL day has raised more than 26 million for local non-profits.

The past couple of years have been so strange, but unfortunately the needs of the kitties never stop.  We are trying to hit a goal of $5,000 this year, but more that that, we’re asking for you to keep us in mind if you have the ability to donate.  The money raised will go towards veterinary bills, and provide food and supplies for our cats in foster care; current and future.

WHEN IS IT?

The official day is May 9th, but early giving starts April 24th, so mark your calendars!  Giving can be done through this link: https://www.givestlday.org/strayhavenrescue or scan the QR code below.
