When pet owners experience economic hardship, they sometimes find they can no longer care for their dogs and cats and decide to either give them away or let them go. As a result, during times of widespread financial strain many pets are released into parks, left behind when homes are vacated, or taken to animal shelters. PAWS provides for and protects stray and abandoned animals, giving them food, shelter, and other care while attempting to place them in stable, permanent homes.

Since its founding in 1967, PAWS has found homes for more than 120,000 dogs and cats and today takes in hundreds of animals every month, many of whom are malnourished and dehydrated. The nonprofit organization never euthanizes healthy adoptable companion animals, and 3,000 dogs and cats are taken into new households every year as a result of PAWS' efforts. PAWS is able to make the most of its food budget thanks to discounts on pet food from manufacturers and distributors, but the cost of feeding its four-legged wards remains substantial.

Join G-Team and donate $10 to help PAWS feed homeless dogs and cats. If G-Team members raise $600, PAWS can purchase enough pet food to feed all of the dogs and cats in its care for one month. Each additional $150 raised will fund a week’s worth of food for PAWS' animals.

Unlike traditional Groupon deals, G-Team campaigns typically don't offer you a "discount" or "savings." So "buyer" beware—when you click "Buy" to donate your time or money to a worthwhile G-Team cause, the only discount you may receive is 100% off free, priceless karma. Read more about G-Team.
