Prevent cruelty to animals
Provide forever homes for animals through adoption
Promote compassion for pets through education
Provide shelter and care for homeless animals
Reduce overpopulation by supporting spay and neuter programs
Assist individuals with emergency pet shelter & food during troubled times
Relieve the suffering of all animals
