Together, we are making a significant impact in supporting Friends of MADACC and their dedication to the welfare of animals in Milwaukee County.

Supporting Friends of MADACC

Friends of MADACC is a devoted volunteer organization that works tirelessly to support MADACC, the Milwaukee Area Domestic Animal Care & Control. MADACC serves as the intake center for all homeless, stray, and missing animals in Milwaukee County. The mission of Friends of MADACC is threefold: to reduce shelter intake, increase awareness of the adoption program, and provide an enriching environment for the animals during their stay at the shelter.

The success of the Dogs 2020 signs fundraiser is a testament to the dedication and compassion of our community. The funds raised will go directly towards supporting the programs and initiatives of Friends of MADACC, including providing essential supplies and services to animals in need and offering support to pet owners in underserved areas of the community. This achievement brings us closer to our goal of creating a more compassionate and humane community for our furry friends.

Interested in getting involved?

If you are inspired by the remarkable work of Friends of MADACC and want to make a difference in the lives of animals, there are numerous ways you can get involved. Whether you have a few hours to spare or are looking for a more long-term commitment, Friends of MADACC offers a variety of volunteer opportunities to suit your interests and availability. Some of the ways you can contribute include:

Events: The events organized by Friends of MADACC may take different forms, ranging from adoption drives and fundraising galas to educational workshops and community outreach programs. Each event is carefully designed to engage the public, create awareness about the importance of animal adoption, and encourage support for shelter animals. By volunteering at these events, you can help make them successful and contribute directly to supporting the shelter animals.

Community Shot Clinics: Vaccinations play a critical role in maintaining the overall health and well-being of animals. Friends of MADACC recognizes the importance of vaccinations and has taken a proactive approach to ensure that all pets, especially those in underserved areas, have access to these essential healthcare services. One of their initiatives to address this need is the organization of community shot clinics. Volunteers play a crucial role in the success of these community shot clinics. Their dedication and assistance help facilitate the smooth operation of the clinics and enable pet owners to access affordable vaccinations for their pets. As a volunteer at these clinics, you may have various responsibilities, including registration and check-in of pet owners and their animals, organizing the flow of people, and providing general information about the importance of vaccinations.

Donations: If you are unable to volunteer your time to Friends of MADACC, another impactful way to support their work is through monetary donations. Friends of MADACC relies on the generosity of individuals and the community to continue their vital mission of providing care and support to shelter animals. By making a monetary contribution, you directly contribute to the well-being of animals in need and help sustain the organization's efforts. Every dollar donated to Friends of MADACC plays a significant role in making a difference in the lives of shelter animals. These monetary contributions are utilized to address a variety of essential needs, including food, medical care, and supplies. Furthermore, monetary donations offer flexibility and allow Friends of MADACC to allocate funds where they are most needed at any given time. This adaptability ensures that your contribution is maximized to benefit the animals and address their specific needs effectively.

Foster Opportunities: Fostering is an incredibly rewarding experience that allows individuals to open their hearts and homes to animals in need. When you become a foster parent, you take on the crucial role of providing a temporary home and care for animals that are awaiting their forever homes. This act of kindness and compassion plays a pivotal role in their journey towards finding permanent, loving families. Many shelters, including Friends of MADACC, have limited space and resources, which can make it challenging to accommodate all the animals in need. By offering to foster an animal, you help create valuable space in the shelter, allowing them to rescue and care for more animals who are in urgent need of help. Fostering provides a safe and nurturing environment for these animals, giving them a chance to thrive and receive the individual attention they need. The impact of fostering goes beyond providing a temporary home. It allows animals to experience life outside the shelter environment, which can be stressful for some. In a foster home, they receive personalized care, socialization, and the opportunity to learn and develop essential skills, such as house training or basic obedience. By providing them with these experiences, you greatly enhance their chances of being successfully adopted into forever homes.
