We partner with local communities and other non-profit organizations to deliver on the ground programs that focus on creating stable, sustainable communities and improved health for animals, people and the environments in which they live.

Funds for Furry Friends is dedicated to finding people for dogs.
COPE Service Dogs helps high school students at risk of leaving school before graduation stay in school through a structured credit program and the use of service dogs in training. The program is unique in Canada through its use of dogs to help students learn. Students enrolled in the program help elementary school students reading below grade level or having trouble with mathematics and visit seniors in hospitals and nursing homes. The service dogs once trained are assigned to a life partner with a mobility disability. Ninety-eight per cent of those enrolled graduate and continue their education or find gainful employment. Testimonials speak to its life altering impact on the students, their families and communities. A gift to COPE is an investment in our youth’s future.
CAAT organizes Animal Health Care Projects right in the community providing sterilization and vaccination services for low-income families. The goal is to reduce the population growth, reduce the number of unwanted dogs and cats and improve the general welfare of the resident animals. We also provide humane education to work toward long-term changes within the community. It is difficult to imagine having no access to veterinary care but there are countless communities in Canada (and internationally) where this is a reality. These communities, where veterinary care is inaccessible, either geographically or financially, are where the Canadian Animal Assistance Team (CAAT) goes.
