Ways to Donate

LOVEPAWS is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in good standing in the state of Maryland. We are 100% unpaid volunteer-run. All donations are tax-deductible and go towards the care of the animals in our rescue and animals we assist in our community to keep them with their families and out of overcrowded shelters.

General Donations

Your donation goes towards supporting our mission of helping dogs and cats in our rescue and animals in our community.

LOVEPAWS is an animal rescue and community outreach organization based in the DMV area — serving Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Northern Virginia. We work to keep pets out of the Prince George’s and Montgomery County shelters through our pantry and other community services. We also advocate for the pit bulls of Prince George’s County by placing them in foster homes, finding them loving fur-ever families, and pushing to repeal the County’s decades-old, discriminatory pit bull ban.

Jackie's Fund

Jackie Farry adopted two pit bulls, Mary and Ruby, from LOVEPAWS — both rescued from the Prince George’s County Animal Shelter and victims of the County’s pit bull ban. A devoted dog lover, Jackie created a fund to help “PG pitties,” especially those with medical needs. Though she passed away in January 2025, her legacy continues through this fund supporting pit bulls in need.

Koda

Koda is a sweet 15-year-old Belgian Malinois and a lifetime foster with LOVEPAWS, meaning she’s not available for adoption. Because of her age, she’ll remain with her loving foster family for the rest of her life.

Koda and her brother Paco, a senior brindle pittie, joined LOVEPAWS after their owner passed away. Caring neighbors fed and walked them until our rescue could step in to give them a safe, loving home.
