Slumber Pawty

This is part of our larger Slumber Pawty fundraising event, where Gateway Pet Guardians, along with more than 70 shelters around the nation, raise money and awareness for pets living in the shelters. For 24 hours, our participants will live in the shelter to help support Gateway's mission. Money raised through Puppy Palooza will go towards Gateway's goal to raise $50,000 over the weekend.

Beyond Rescue

For twenty years, we have been leading the animal welfare industry by investing in people and communities to end the cycle of animal homelessness. By building capacity for animal advocates in our own neighborhood, we increase animal well-being across the East Side Pet District and beyond! We are proudly located in East St. Louis, joining an already robust community of pet lovers. By removing barriers to foster and adoption, and providing an infusion of resources such as affordable, quality veterinary care and pet supplies – we unleash the power of partnership!
