There are many ways to help animals in need! Some are as easy as clicking buttons
 
 Donate: Rescuing animals can be expensive. They need food, vetting, spaying or neutering, housing etc. Rescues constantly have to throw fundraisers or apply for grants just to barely get by. You can help by giving! Even one dollar makes a huge difference to these wonderful shelters. For a list of awesome rescues and easily accessible donation links, please click here! Most accept PayPal as well as credit and debit cards. If you find yourself in the grocery store, maybe buy a bag of food to drop off at your shelter? Other things they need often are old linens for bedding, leashes, collars, toys and treats.
Sign petitons: There are literally thousands of petitions out there available to sign. They work by sharing information about a particular cause, then you sign saying you support that cause. For a handy list, please click here. Please be advised, there is graphic content on the directed page in link. But remember, the cruelty doesn't stop because we shut our eyes.
 Volunteer: Volunteer at your local shelter and you'll join a network of hundreds of thousands of people working to make the world safe and more humane for all living creatures. You'll make the jobs of everyone working for animals a little easier by lending a hand and spreading the message of responsible pet ownership and animal protection. You'll make lots of new friends—and not just the four-legged kind. Working side by side with people who share similar interests can forge lifelong friendships. If you have no shelter nearby, try asking your local Humane Society. You can find a directory here.
Click: Literally. Visit this site daily and click the large purple button to feed a shelter pet! They provide information about how it all works.
Crosspost: Find your local animal shelter on Petfinder, Facebook or other social media sites and share the pets they have for adoption. One single share causes the photo to be exposed to all of your friends. Say even just 1 of your friends then shares the photo, then it's exposed to all of their friends and so on. It creates an amazing snowball effect that can get a dog rescued from the pound!
