Amazon Smile

Update: Amazon made a surprise decision to shut down its Amazon Smile donation program. As of 2022, the company donated $449 million to various charities and this change has left thousands of nonprofits struggling to find ways to replace the lost funding. At Hope For Paws, we lost almost 43,000 of you who supported us through this program!!!

The funding from Amazon Smile went directly to the animals. The support helped us provide complex surgeries and simple check-ups for animals. We just received our final contribution from Amazon Smile and I’m asking you to rejoin us as a Hope For Paws member. 

Our average member contributes $15/month, but I’d like to ask you to join our team with a donation of $5/month. With the closing of Amazon Smile, we’ll need 4,000 people to join at this level to maintain the same level of medical care every month. 

Over the last few years, we've promoted Amazon Smile as part of our fundraising efforts because the program provided Hope For Paws with a consistent revenue stream from Amazon customers. What started as a simple program to let Amazon customers support causes they cherish, grew to providing over $20,000 per month in critical funding to Hope For Paws. 

We need your help

When Amazon notified us that their program would end, they shared that they have no plans to let us know who was participating in the program. If you supported Hope For Paws through Amazon Smile, THANK YOU! The funding was life changing for so many animals that otherwise were at risk and were able to find loving homes after receiving medical care. 

Our average member contributes $15/month, but I’d like to ask you to join our team with a donation of $5/month. With the closing of Amazon Smile, we’ll need 4,000 people to join at this level to maintain the same level of medical care every month. 

– 20,000 of you were supporters through Amazon Smile. We need just 25% to become a Hope For Paws member. 

– If all of our Amazon Smile supporters become members, we can provide veterinary care to 4 times as many animals!

Please join us today.

Thank you so much!
