About Us
About Our Organization
Our founders created Missoula Friends of the Shelter as a non-profit 501(c)3 support organization for the Missoula County Animal Shelter. They intended to provide a tax-deductible donation option for the Missoula community and beyond to support pets in need, increase community awareness and education on pet-related issues, and support ongoing efforts to improve facilities in the public Missoula shelter.
We know that the Missoula Animal Services staff do their best for each and every animal they take into their care. Our mission is to empower the Missoula County animal shelter to continue their good work through financial and volunteer support.
