Stray Animals Matter

C.A.R.E., also known as Castaway Animals Rescue Effort, is a charity 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization devoted to ending animal abuse. Since its inception in 1992, C.A.R.E. has saved more than 25,000 lives, and we're still tally-ing them.

Our main objective is to place 100% of all adoptable animals who come to our shelter. We will work to raise the necessary funds to ensure the continued functioning of our shelter in order to reach this aim.

By running a shelter for animals in need of care, finding homes for animals, and providing educational programs that support animal welfare, the Humane Society of Southwest Missouri works to lessen the suffering and misery of animals.

UNTIL ANIMALS FIND THEIR FOREVER HOME, PROVIDE THEM WITH A SAFE SPACE, VETERINARY CARE, AND LOTS OF LOVE.
