Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter

Corporate Sponsorship

Become A Corporate Rescue Partner

Since receiving charitable status in 1999, the Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter has saved thousands of pets that were abandoned, unwanted, relinquished or needed to be rescued.

The Shelter has found loving homes for all of these innocent animals, but the work is far from done. Many of these animals had either been relinquished by their owners, no longer able or willing to care for them, while others had been abandoned or abused by uncaring individuals.

The Shelter is always filled to capacity with cats, kittens, dogs, puppies and birds – all waiting for a new life in a loving home. Over 200 pets are on a waiting list to come into the Shelter and we receive 80-100 requests a day from people who need to relinquish their pets for one reason or another. Some rescued animals stay for a day, some a week, some a month and some for a year or more.

If you’re an animal lover and want to support a local charity, this is a great way to support the Shelter and become a Rescue Partner.

RESCUE SALES PROMOTION

There are many ways you can financially support the Shelter. We have supportive businesses that give us a donation as a % of a sale to promote the contribution made to our charity. By donating a portion of a service or product sold, you are providing the Shelter continuous funding. Your customers see your generous support of the community and a local charity.

CANISTER PROGRAM

Any business open to the public can display one of our collection tins for donations. The tin only takes a small amount of room on a counter and can greatly help the Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter with additional funds every month. Our volunteers even deliver the tins and pick up the money once a month, making it no effort for your staff to have the canister available to your patrons.

ONE-TIME CORPORATE DONATION

Any donation, anytime, is appreciated and can be used to cover numerous expenses such as food, litter and other supplies. All donations are invaluable to the Shelter and enable us to care for more pets, even when unforeseen circumstances occur. The Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter is not funded by any government agencies and relies solely on the support of our community and caring businesses such as your to keep their doors open.

EMPLOYEE DONATIONS

The veterinarians we work with provide health assessments, vaccinations, de-worming and spay/neutering as well as diagnostic services, medications and surgical procedures for animals with special needs or those with life-threatening conditions. A donation each month from your employees would greatly assist with the on-going costs of operating the Shelter. We would appreciate the opportunity to talk to your staff about this program and provide Helping Hero brochures to explain and set-up monthly donations.
