Ensure a Lifesaving Legacy

Leave a Legacy to Help the Animals

Thanks to generous support from animal lovers like you, the Animal League has been able to rescue, nurture and adopt close to 1,000,000 animals to date.

As the cost to rescue and rehabilitate animals continues to increase, we appreciate the animal lovers that have supported the Animal League through charitable giving bequests which help us continue our hands-on work.

With a Planned Gift, you will become a Member of our Pet Protector’s Society, a group of animal lovers that are providing a lasting legacy for the animals.

What is a "Planned Gift"?  

You can make a more significant gift to the Animal League than you ever thought possible, while maximizing the financial and tax benefits to you, your estate, and your family. A planned gift continues your loving legacy for the animals and helps the Animal League continue its lifesaving mission.
