Helping Strays Slumber Pawty

Popcorn, pillow fights, puppy snuggles and kitty cuddles

It’s time for the 2022 Slumber Pawty! On March 5th, 17 local animal shelters and rescue organizations, including Helping Strays, are coming together to raise much needed funds for daily operations, raise awareness of the importance of adoption from local shelters, and give the public a look into the life of a shelter animal. We are so grateful for the generous support the community continues to show the animals. Will you please consider selecting an option below and participating in the Pawty?

Helping Strays is also inviting our supporters and anyone interested to visit the Helping Strays Shelter, 4221 Hanover Rd, Columbia, IL, from 2PM until 9PM on Saturday, March 5th, to see how an animal shelter operates and cares for the animals while they wait for adoption. Tours will be available, snacks and drinks provided, and most importantly, people will have an opportunity to see firsthand how Helping Strays carries out its mission ‘to rescue, shelter, and rehabilitate homeless pets, find them loving homes, and promote responsible pet ownership’. Several volunteers and staff will be spending the entire night playing and sleeping beside the rescued cats and dogs in the shelter.

There are several ways you can participate: (open the attachment for step by step instructions)
