Friends of Dallas Animal Services

💙 ABOUT US

Friends of Dallas Animal Services, an initiative of Operation Kindness, is the official non-profit fundraising partner for Dallas Animal Services (DAS). As one of the largest city-run shelters in the country, DAS cares for over 27,000 pets each year. Friends of DAS helps bridge the gap between city funding and the cost of lifesaving and innovative programs and services. Thanks to our amazing community, we've provided over $2.2M in supplemental support to DAS since 2019.

This Giving Tuesday, we're celebrating the power of partnership, particularly our incredible FRIENDS, without whom none of this would be possible! We hope you’ll join the movement and show your support for the neediest pets in Dallas. 

💙 HOW YOUR GIFT CAN HELP
