We have exceeded our $30,000 goal and are going into an after pawty through Wednesday, 3/9 at midnight! All gifts made during this in-person and virtual pawty will support the operating expenses associated with intake and adoption, as well as generate awareness for lifesaving programming that helps shelter pets.
It's time to pawty! Several local animal shelters and rescue organizations, including Gateway Pet Guardians (GPG) have once again come together for the St. Louis Area Shelter Slumber Pawty Presented by Purina. Starting March 5 at noon, participants are invited to attend an in-person shelter sleepover or to join in virtually from home. For 24 hours, in-person participants commit to raising $1,000 and for those at home virtually, GPG offers the option to raise at least $500. All participants will have their own unique link through MightyCause, which will redirect back to this page.
This collaborative event between 17 organizations aims to raise money for the operating expenses associated with intake and adoption, generate awareness for lifesaving programming and showcase the partnership between the many local organizations and supporters. During the event, both in-person and virtual participants are encouraged to share stories of their shelter or foster friend. Sharing fun photos and videos in pajamas is not mandatory, but highly recommended : ) Follow all the fun on Facebook March 5-6.

Beyond Rescue. GPG's mission is to keep families together and prevent owned pets from entering an already crowded shelter system by reimagining what animal rescue really means. GPG believes everyone deserves the love of a pet, regardless of zip code, income, employment-status or housing-type. GPG goes above and beyond rescue, ensuring equitable access to resources so that no one in our community has to make the impossible choice to give up their beloved pet.
