Safe & Together š¦Updated 5 hours ago
Safe & Together⢠is a life-changing initiative made possible through iHeartDogs' partnership with Greater Good Charities. This program was created with a shared mission: to help domestic violence survivors and their pets find safety together, instead of forcing them to choose between the two.
Why It Matters
Research shows that a large share of domestic violence survivors delay leaving an abusive situation out of fear for their pet's safety, in part because only a small percentage of shelters are able to house animals alongside people. Safe & Together helps remove that barrier ā funding pet-friendly renovations at domestic violence shelters, as well as care packages for survivors and their pets ā so no one has to leave a beloved companion behind to reach safety.
How You Help
There are several impactful ways you can support the Safe & Together mission:
- Shop Safe & Together Products:Ā Select products in our store are specially marked to support this program. Each item purchased helps provide a day of safety and care for a survivor and their pet at a facility equipped to keep them together.
- Make a One-Time Gift:Ā You can also make a one-time donation to help a survivor and their pet stay safe together.
Every contribution, big or small, helps make sure no survivor has to choose between their safety and their pet's.
