The San Diego Animal Support Foundation is a private, volunteer dependent, nonprofit (501c3) organization dedicated to improving the welfare of animals in overburdened, underfunded local shelters and rescues. We:

Encourage the adoption of shelter/rescue pets through media campaigns and daily television pet segments featuring the entire rescue community.

Promote education and the proper care of animals through pet segments, press releases and articles.

Help local rescue organizations and the community pay for spay/neuter surgeries to prevent pet overpopulation.

Fund imperative animal welfare projects.

Work with the public to provide emergency medical treatment for animals that may otherwise die.

Host annual adoption events bringing together dozens of local adoption agencies to help hundreds of animals.

Operate a car donation program that helps not one, but dozens of local organizations.

Your generous financial and car donations are critical in helping the Foundation in its effort to support the needs of the local animal welfare community. Here are just a few of the ways your donations have been used to help our local animals in need:
