United Animal Friends

United Animal Friends (UAF) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit group founded in 2003 by a group of avid animal lovers. Since our grassroots beginning, we have continued to grow in size and strength, while continuing to maintain our founding principles of rescue, volunteerism and compassion.

Our mission is to provide rescue programs and services to animals and those who care for them.

Our primary goals are:

• Saving the lives of adoptable dogs and cats.
• Finding the best home for each animal in our care.
• Reducing pet overpopulation through our spay/neuter programs.
• Feeding hungry animals through our Community Pet Food Bank.
• Relieving suffering and facilitating the compassionate treatment of animals.

UAF is an all-volunteer organization. To support our programs and services, we rely on donations from individuals and businesses; grants from foundations and government entities; and fundraising events.  

Since 2003, we have found loving homes for more than 4,000 animals and spayed or neutered over 10,000. Our Community Pet Food Bank helps feed more than 700 hungry animals each month and ensures that all recipients are spayed or neutered. Our Trap/Neuter/Return/Manage Program improves the lives of feral and abandoned cats living outdoors. Our Low-Cost Spay/Neuter Certificate Program provides the means for low-income families to have their pets altered.
