IF THOSE MATCHING FUNDS AREN’T ENOUGH……
GlobalGiving is still matching your first Monthly Donation (as long as you commit to a minimum of 4 consecutive months) by 100% up to $200! Click here to go to the Monthly Donation Tab Page. Just think of how many families and pets you’ll be helping! We’re incredibly grateful for all the people who have done that already, and we thank you for your generosity! For those anonymous donors, we can’t thank you enough, either. Your contributions will help ensure that we can continue our mission to help as may Beautiful Souls cross the Rainbow Bridge from home, in their peaceful and loving environment. If you have made a contribution in the past, now is time to consider an annual Gift to honor your beloved pet at the Rainbow Bridge.
OUR MISSION – WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO
We at Sugar's Gift™ do not charge for any of our services to help your terminally ill baby. Why? Our mission from the beginning has been all about the Little Ones, not about how much money someone has. We don't charge you on a sliding scale. We don't charge you based on your income. We believe this: Every one of you who has a terminally ill pet has something in common with all of us: the love for our pets, our companions, our Little Angels and the need to have them pass in the most comfortable surroundings. That is something sacred to us. We share that love and respect you for that love, as well. That is why we do not charge you for our services. It is the last Gift you can give your baby, and it is Sugar's Gift to both of you.
YES, WE ARE GROWING!
We now have Five Active Sugar’s Gift™PawPrints nationwide!
And… Our Network is slated to grow even more in 2020. We’ll be branching out to these other great cities in the coming year!
Sugar’s Gift™ NEW PawPrints on the Horizon:
So, when we say every dollar counts…..EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS.
OUR PET OWNERS, OUR MESSAGE….
All across the country when we share what Sugar’s Gift™ is all about, no one ever mentions the word bittersweet. Most people describe our services as, “Bringing lasting peace to pets and their owners after a life full of love.” We offer a life-changing experience...our services extend far beyond the time and scope of the services we provide for you and your pet. We are here as a resource, an ear or a shoulder to cry on, an organization that will always be here for you and your furbabies. Some of our pet owners have described our client care service as unsurpassed. Read some of our testimonials here.

WHAT WE NEED NOW FROM YOU
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
We are looking for Volunteers – our needs are growing, so please complete the Volunteer form on the website if you have a special skillset or have extra time on your hands. Our website has a few positions listed and we certainly have a need for various Administration positions, Website Manager, Social Media Team Members, Event Planners, and many more. And, if you just want to join us but don’t have anything in particular in mind, that is OK, too! Remember, though…..all positions are Volunteer, not paid. That is one reason our overhead rate is at 2% currently, and our goal is not to let it increase over 5%. We are very cognizant of our costs. We want your dollars to go to our mission, not our overhead expenses.
REMEMBER….
Sugar’s Gift™ is the only non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization in the country whose mission is to help terminally ill pets cross over the Rainbow Bridge from home with comfort, dignity and peace.
Please give generously.....monthly, annually, whatever suits your budget. All the other Little Angels need us....and we need you. Thank you.
