One way you can help PAWS help the animals is through Donation and supply drives. It takes hundreds of pounds of food and supplies to care for the approximately 10,000 animals PAWS cares for each year. We are always in need of the items from our wish list, and money donations to help us purchase equipment and supplies to keep the animals warm, fed and healthy.

1. Set a time frame in which to collect donations, for example give it a week or a month.
2. Decorate posters and collection boxes to be displayed at your school, church or community center. Be sure to get permission to put the collection boxes in the places you choose. PAWS can provide you with donation box signs.
3. Distribute copies of the PAWS wish list to people telling them where they can drop off their items and why the drive is important.
4. Wait for the items to start rolling in!
5. Be sure to nicely remind people about your drive throughout the time frame.
6. When your drive is over, drop everything off at PAWS in Lynnwood, Washington. Make sure to check paws.org for hours and directions. If you have questions about donations, call 425.787.2500, ext. 255
