Seattle Animal Foundation

In 2010, the Seattle Animal Shelter (SAS) and a committed group of volunteers recognized that there were certain needs above and beyond what the City of Seattle could fund. To better address these needs, the Seattle Animal Shelter Foundation (SASF) was formed. In 2024, the organization has expanded to become the Seattle Animal Foundation (SAF), where we partner with animal welfare organizations throughout the Greater Seattle area to further their lifesaving missions and empower community involvement.

SAF is a non-profit organization run by a volunteer board that is dedicated to partnering with animal welfare organizations throughout the Greater Seattle area to further their lifesaving missions and empower community involvement. Thousands of dogs, cats and critters are helped every year and this support is made possible through generous donors and committed volunteers.

By raising these critical funds, SAF contributes to the health and wellbeing of Seattle’s homeless animals by funding life changing programs and services led by animal welfare organizations in the area. We invite volunteers and the local community to be part of the effort, and if you are already a supporter, thank you for putting the animals first.
