This holiday season, hope is everywhere — in wagging tails, gentle purrs, and second chances.

And it’s all thanks to you.

At the Animal Protective Association of Missouri (APA), we believe every pet deserves exceptional care — and a perfect match. Every day, you help turn frightened into fearless, helpless into hopeful, and lost into loved.

When a pet has nowhere else to turn, you make sure the APA is here — ready to help, heal, and provide the care each one needs. Because of compassionate friends like you, pets who arrive cold, hungry, scared, or injured are met with warmth, comfort, medical treatment, and love.

Your kindness brings full bellies, safe shelter, lifesaving treatment, and the promise of a brighter tomorrow. Every gift helps another pet feel safe, cared for, and loved — no matter where they’ve come from or what they’ve been through.

And today, your support can go even further.

This Giving Tuesday, your gift will go three times as far for pets in need!

Thanks to the incredible generosity of Carolyn and Charlie, Lisa, an anonymous friend, and Hyspeco, every dollar you give will be tripled — up to $50,000 — helping us reach our $75,000 goal.

As the colder months approach, more pets will arrive in urgent need of help. Your support ensures they receive the care, comfort, and second chances they deserve.

💛 Will you help a pet in need this Giving Tuesday?

Your gift keeps them warm, safe, and loved — today and all season long.

Hope for the holidays starts with you — bringing healing, family, and the happiest of endings to pets who have nowhere else to turn.
