Animal Foundation of Great Falls - Fostering a caring community for animals

Donations

There are many ways to donate to the Animal Foundation. We appreciate every dollar that is given to us in Great Falls’ first Capital Fund Drive for Animals. For those giving $1,000 or more, their names will be permanently recognized in an appropriate manner in the new shelter. Once the new shelter is built, we intend to recognize every contribution at a grand opening for the facility.

Gifts of Securities

Common stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or other securities may be donated to the Animal Foundation. It is almost always to your advantage to transfer appreciated securities to the Foundation directly, rather than selling them and giving cash. You should consult with your tax advisor on the potential advantages of these transfers. To find out how to transfer your securities to the Animal Foundation, you (or your broker or bank trust officer) should contact Sara Hessler at 406-791-7496 or Bob James at 406-771-0007.

Gifts of Property and In-Kind Contributions

Donors can contribute real estate such as a residence, vacation home, farm, ranch, automobile, commercial property or land to the Foundation. You may also make an in-kind contribution to the Foundation for its construction.

Corporate Matching Gifts

Many corporations encourage employees to participate in fellow philanthropic opportunities by matching, doubling, or even tripling each dollar they contribute to the Animal Foundation. Your company’s personnel department can provide details and the matching gift form to include with your gift check.

Endowment Fund

The Animal Foundation’s fund raising is to raise funds to construct the shelter, we have created an endowment fund to support its operations. An endowment fund holds the money donated in perpetuity and utilizes only the interest to fund selected programs. If you would like to learn more about contributing through the endowment fund, please contact Bob James at 406-771-0007 or John Gilbert at 406-453-1800.

Pavers

Help support the new animal shelter by honoring a special pet, loved one, or friend with a commemorative paver which will be prominently displayed at the new shelter. Your personal inscription will forever celebrate the unique relationship you cherish or had with a beloved pet or animal-loving friend. Click here to purchase a paver.

Memorials for Pets, Friends, or Family

Many people send us money after the loss of a friend, family member, or to honor a friend’s pet, or one of their own four-legged creatures. Checks can be mailed to the Animal Foundation at PO Box 3426, Great Falls, MT, 59403-3426.
