In-Kind Donations


Each dollar we spend on essential items such as bleach, kitty litter, paper clips, and soap is one less dollar we can use toward expanding our services and saving more animals. Please consider adding one or more of the items below to your regular shopping list and sending them directly to our shelter!

Remember: you can give back every time you do your regular online shopping by shopping through AmazonSmile. Just by shopping via AmazonSmile, a portion of your sale will be donated to ACL - at no cost to you! And, if you shop ACL's wish list on AmazonSmile you'll be giving back twice!
Don't forget to select Animal Care League as your preferred charity!
