PAWS Chicago - Community Outreach Helping Chicago's communities to provide resources & awareness on how to help & care for their pets.

PAWS for Life is a program of PAWS Chicago, the Midwest’s largest No-Kill humane organization. PAWS for Life works on the ground in underserved communities of Chicago to remove barriers to access pet wellness resources, with a focus on spay/neuter. This data-driven program directly reaches the most underserved areas of the city through door-to-door outreach and building positive relationships with

pet owners. Using these strategies, PAWS for Life is making strides towards a no-kill Chicago, keeping pets in their homes, reducing overpopulation, and empowering pet owners with the resources and information they need to make the healthiest decisions for their pets. This page is for volunteers and supporters to keep in touch with the program, sign up for volunteer opportunities, and more.
