From 19° in a Crate to Safety — Help Us Save the Next Etta James.

**Every gift counts — and right now, your donation can go twice as far.**

You have seen the animals who come into our care… injured, sick, hit by cars, starving, neglected, abandoned — and you have changed their lives. Your compassion has made the impossible possible.

Meet Etta James. She is just 6 months old. She was found abandoned in a crate, outside in 19° weather (feels like 2°) — curled up, freezing, and waiting for help. If we had not rescued her when we did, she might not have survived. But today, she is safe because of this community.

Etta James is with us now — warm, cared for, and finally loved. And because of you, we know her future will be brighter than her past.

This is where you come in. From now through December 31, your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $25,000, thanks to a compassionate group of donors who believe in this lifesaving work.

Give today, and your impact will be doubled. Every dollar becomes two. Every act of kindness becomes a lifeline. Every gift counts — for Etta James, and for every animal who needs CARE STL to be there when no one else is.

Please give what you can before December 31, or before the matching funds run out.

Your generosity creates second chances.

Give now. Double your impact. Save a life.

Every dollar you give today will be matched—turning $25 into $50, $50 into $100, and bringing twice the hope to animals who need it most.

Your gift is tax-deductible and goes straight to lifesaving care.

This holiday season, be the reason a dog gets a warm bed instead of a cold sidewalk. Be the reason a forgotten animal learns what love feels like again.
