Hello team C.A.R.E.4Paws!

Tickets to our Happy Tails Celebration & Fundraiser on Sunday, May 21, at the Music Academy in Montecito are selling fast. Scroll down to secure yours now, or sign up for a sponsorship that includes tickets while providing support for pet families in need.

We're about to roll out our brand-new, 37-foot mobile clinic and are truly grateful for the donors and grantors who helped make this possible.

We're also excited about our new partnership with The Street Dog Coalition and other ways in which we're growing to help more pet families.

Pets provide so much comfort, love and loyalty to us and that human-animal bond is mutually beneficial.

Thank you for all that you do and stay pawsitive!

Isabelle Gullö

Executive Director & Cofounder

For two years, C.A.R.E.4Paws has been fundraising for a brand-new, 37-foot mobile clinic to augment our two existing and older, 26-foot veterinary vehicles.

We are so excited share that—thanks to the generous support of our community—we have met and even surpassed our fundraising goal!

The new, larger clinic-on-wheels rolls out over the summer and will allow our organization to help more animals over a larger geographical footprint.

Now we continue fundraising to grow and sustain our Mobile Community Medicine & Spay/Neuter Outreach program and the critical pet wellness services it provides for pet families in need. You can help by becoming a sponsor at one of many levels.

On Sunday, May 21, we host our Happy Tails Celebration & Fundraiser at the Music Academy of the West from 4pm to 8pm. Our event highlights our work in the community and features heartfelt Happy Tails from pet owners we help. Guests enjoy great music, food, wine and "meowgaritas" in a beautiful setting. Plus, get an "inside look" of our new mobile clinic.

Tickets are $100 and we also offer many meaningful sponsorship opportunities!

We loved last month's story in the Independent about C.A.R.E.4Paws' new mobile clinic and our March 12 FUNdraiser at La Lieff Winery! A big, heartfelt thanks to everyone who joined us and supported our event!

Also, we are excited about the publicity we received in the Santa Maria Times and New Times SLO.

We are pawsitively happy with our first wellness clinic for pet families experiencing homelessness, cohosted with The Street Dog Coalition (SDC) and Central Coast Partnership for Animal Welfare (CCPAW) in San Luis Obispo.

On Saturday, April 15, 30 dogs and cats received vaccines, flea treatment, wellness exams, nail trims and other services by SDC's Dr. Alex Gomes and our technician Becky Clement. CCPAW handed out leashes, collars, pet beds and other supplies and Shower The People provided mobile-shower services for the two-legged. A great partnership event!

Community appreciation 🧡

Thank you, Images By Valerie, for the exciting Pooch Playoffs & FUNdraiser and thank you to all the participants! We greatly appreciate your generous donation of $1564.23 and your compassion for our pet families in need.

Get your pups geared up for the 2024 Pooch Playoffs! We're honored to announce our continued collaboration with Images by Valerie for next year.

C.A.R.E.4Paws' volunteer Ava Vasquez did it again! Just like last year in April, Ava coordinated a weeklong pet food drive at her former elementary school, Vieja Valley in Santa Barbara. In 2022, Ava's drive brought in 400lbs of food. This year, Ava got the school's student council on board and doubled the amount of food raised to more than 800lbs!

We thank Ava, students, parents and teachers at Vieja Valley Elementary for the incredible support for pet families in need.

So many happy tails!
