PAWS: How you can help.

by | Sep 4, 2022 | Kennel Diaries, Updates

A few blog posts back, we spoke about the pressure PAWS is currently under paying our maintenance, care and vet bill fees while struggling with the demand of dogs and puppies in need of our help. We wanted to highlight how our supporters can help by outlining how below. Remember, PAWS is a not for profit charity who is only able to continue doing our work through a small government grant each year and the donations and help from our amazing supporters.

Donate

You can also become a monthly sponsor by downloading our Standing Order Form, print it out and fill in your details and return to PAWS. Remember no amount is too small.

Or send a donation directly through the post to, PAWS Animal Rescue. Mullinahone. County Tipperary E41 R652.

Tax Efficient Giving

If you are a PAYE tax payer or a self assessed tax payer and donate €250 or more a year, PAWS can claim back the tax that you have already paid on your donation, hence bulking up your donation to us by up to 40% at NO extra cost to you. Please email info@paws.ie for details

Corporate Donations

Under the 2001 Finance Act, a corporate tax relief scheme is in place for companies that make donations to eligible charities. A company donation greater than €250, with no upper limit, to PAWS, can qualify for tax relief at the current rate of corporation tax. The company will claim a deduction for the donation as if it were a trading expense.

 

Fundraisers

If you are a shop or pub owner, contact us to get a donation box for the counter. Run the mini Marathon, hold a sponsored walk, organise a coffee morning, do a skydive or use your imagination to find cool fun ways of raising funds for animals in need. We’ve seen lots of incredible ideas from sponsored brunch days to fun dog shows and everything helps.

Volunteer

Contact us and come down to our kennels and help out on your time off. If you are a dog lover, there is nothing more fulfilling than to be able to help out with the dogs first hand. The work includes cleaning out kennels, feeding, grooming and playing with the dogs. Don’t forget to wear durable clothing and welly boots, and your sunniest smile of course!

 

There is also a dog walking group called “Walk a dog” on social media that organise coming to walk all of the dogs every weekend. They’ve been coming for years now and the kennels absolutely erupt with excitement every time the Walk A DOG cars pull up. They are always looking for helping hands.
