A Nonprofit for People, Animals, and Second Chances

We run our own charitable projects, and we sponsor other people's. Our direct projects are resQdogs, which rescues dogs and helps owners keep the ones they have, and Tranz Legal, which helps transgender and gender diverse people reach affordable legal support. Alongside those we offer fiscal sponsorship to approved charitable projects.

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation, so gifts may be tax deductible to the extent allowed by law. We cannot give tax advice, and how any particular gift is treated depends on your own circumstances, so check with your tax professional. Ask us and we will send a written acknowledgment of what you gave.

Gifts support the charitable programs and activities of this organization. That covers animal welfare through our dog rescue project, community assistance, re-entry support, youth programs, and access to resources. Money designated for a sponsored project is administered by us and granted out for that project's approved charitable activities.

Get Involved

Dogs come into our care at different times, so there is no standing roster to browse. Tell us what you are hoping for and how you live, and we will let you know what is possible now and what may open up. Placements are matched rather than first come, because a match that suits both sides is the one that holds.

Every project is reviewed individually before anything is approved. Tell us about the work, who leads it, what it will cost, and how you plan to raise money, and we look at whether the activities are charitable and consistent with our purposes. Approved projects then sign a written fiscal sponsorship agreement.

Apply for fiscal sponsorship

Sometimes, and it depends entirely on what our programs need that month. Pet food and supplies, hygiene products, clothing, school supplies and office supplies are all things we can use in the right season. Please ask us before delivering or shipping anything, because storage we do not have helps nobody.
