There are SO many ways for our community to get involved and help our rescue animals! Below are just some of the great ways we’ve found for people of all ages, abilities, and demographics to help us to help them!
Pawsitive Restorations Animal Rescue is a licensed, 501c3 nonprofit, foster-based animal rescue in Aurora, Colorado that relies solely community support and donations from animal-loving individuals and businesses to save the lives of hundreds of desperate animals every year. We graciously accept monetary, supply, equipment, land grant, charitable bequest, vehicle, and service donations!
*All donations are Tax Deductible!
You can support PRAR every time you shop at King Soopers or City Market with their King Soopers Community Rewards Program. It’s really easy and every time you use your King Soopers loyalty card you help PRAR earn funds for our Orphans!
Here’s How It Works:
1. Go to www.KingSoopers.com
2. Log into your account or create an account
3. On the left side menu of your account, click on “Community Rewards”
4. In the search box type “Pawsitive Restorations Animal Rescue”
5. When you see us pop up, click the blue “Enroll” button
Hold a Supply Drive!
A great project for scouts, schools, clubs, and individuals is to host a donation supply drive for the rescue! If there’s one thing we always need, it’s ALL. THE. THINGS! Literally… everything! We go through so many supplies so often, that it seems we are constantly begging for help from our animal-loving community. Consequently, when we receive these cherished supplies as donations, we don’t have to purchase them. That means we can put our money to better use, which is usually veterinary bills. $$$ If your group is interested in hosting a supply drive for P.R.A.R. we emphatically encourage you to contact us! We will put you in touch with our community coordinator and get the ball rolling!
Make No-Sew Fleece Tie Blankets!
ComfortCritters.org has a wonderful tutorial on how to quickly create these much needed, and appreciated blankets.
Making a comfort blanket for a pet going through a lot of stress does not need to be expensive, difficult, or require a lot of time. There’s also no need to take up knitting or crocheting. Tied-fleece blankets are loved by the shelters and pets alike. They are soft & thick, bright & colorful and easy to keep clean. Try one yourself and you just may pick up a new hobby!
Every single P.R.A.R. animal gets their very own blankie to snuggle with and keep, so we are generally in need of blankets! This is a perfect project for kids who want to be involved in rescue, scouts, or even seniors! Likewise, we also accept these blankets sewn for those folks who don’t want to (or can’t) tie the knots. Blankets should be made with new fleece only, 2 layers thick, and can be of various sizes, because pets come in ALL sizes too!
Create a Fundraiser in Honor of a Loved One!
Click the logo above to go to the PRAR page of Colorado Gives. Just under our logo, click on the “fundraise” button to begin setting up your fundraiser.
You may create a fundraiser for Pawsitive Restorations Animal Rescue via the ColoradoGives.org website for ANY reason! Birthdays, weddings, or just because you want to help!
Many people wish to honor loved ones who are no longer with us, and who may have had a heart for our four-legged friends. By creating an “In Memoriam” fundraiser, you can honor your loved one and distribute the direct link to their friends and family to donate in lieu of flowers. You are able to control, monitor and adjust your fundraiser as necessary.
Create a Facebook/Instagram Fundraiser!
Two weeks before your birthday, you will see a message from Facebook in your News Feed giving you the option to create your very own fundraiser for Pawsitive Restorations for your birthday, or any other occasion! Your friends will receive a notification inviting them to support our cause in honor of their friend’s special day.
Likewise, Instagram has a similar platform that allows you to create a fundraiser for any occasion for Pawsitive Restorations Animal Rescue!
Put a donation box at your place of business!
A donation box is a great way to bring in a little extra cash for the rescue! If you have a high traffic local business, we would love to put one of our donation boxes in your building!
Show your customers that you support your friendly neighborhood animal rescue, and give them a way to help, too! If you would like us to drop off a donation box at your place of business, please contact us right away.
Help Us To Network The Animals On Social Media!
Every single person on social media can help the rescue animals monumentally if you just do THREE easy things!
- Like/Love our posts.
- Comment on our posts (don’t forget to tag a friend!)
- SHARE our posts to your wall, and also to your community pages!
That’s it folks! Algorithms are funny things. The more “likes, comments, and shares” a post gets, the more the platform sees that post as being, ‘IMPORTANT’ The more important the post is in the eyes of the bots, the MORE THE POST IS SEEN. The more the post is seen, the more animals we find homes and help for. The more animals we find homes for, THE MORE ANIMALS WE CAN SAVE! It’s as simple as that folks!
Check Out Our Wish Lists!
Dogs gotta eat folks! And when they eat, they poop. A LOT! We are constantly in need of various items, including food, supplements, toys, medical supplies, potty pads and more! Click the link below, or on the image to the left to go to our
WISH LIST PAGE!
Employee Matching Gifts Programs!
Employee Matching Gifts are a type of philanthropy in which companies financially match donations that their employees make to nonprofit organizations. When an employee makes a donation, they’ll request the matching gift from their employer, who then makes their own donation.
Ask if your employer matches gifts today!
Donate A Vehicle, or Donate Towards a Vehicle!
Our rescue is currently trying to acquire a safe, reliable transport van. The reality is that a vehicle, such as the Sprinter Van pictured here, or a customized RV could catapult our “saved animal” numbers exponentially! With this valuable tool, we can be ready to mobilize immediately to respond to disaster areas and to assist law enforcement agencies with emergency seizures of neglected and abused animals in hoarding situations. In addition to that, we would be well equipped to make transports to our under-served partner shelters in surrounding states to swoop up the animals who are next to die on the euthanasia list.
We are working hard to save funds to purchase a safe, newer transport vehicle, but with current costs, (before customizing to make it safe for animal transport) The “van fund” has a REALLY long way to go. We would love to partner with a local dealership who would work with us on cost , or even donate a van to the rescue. Can you even IMAGINE how many more lives we could save?
