At Animal Welfare Association, we believe pets are family. That’s why our Pet Food Pantry is here to provide temporary nutritional support to families facing financial hardship. Last year, we proudly served over 3,200 families, helping keep beloved pets in loving homes where they belong. With the support of our amazing volunteers and generous donors, we’re making a real difference – for both people and pets. Learn more about how we’re strengthening our community and inspiring others to do the same. Together, we can ensure no family has to choose between feeding themselves or their furry companions. https://lnkd.in/ezxG5yaJ #AnimalWelfare #PetFoodPantry #StrongerTogether #CommunityImpact

AWA is the oldest and largest low-cost spay/neuter clinic, adoption center and no-kill animal shelter in South Jersey.
About us
AWA is a private, no-kill, 501(c)3 organization that does not receive federal, state, or county funding. We rely completely on donations. All of our animals are spayed or neutered prior to adoption, vaccinated, treated for worms and fleas, micro-chipped, and come with one free month of pet health insurance. (Insurance excludes rabbits and small animals). There are adoption and surrender fees required to fund and continue our life-saving work. AWA was founded in 1948 by a small group of individuals who wanted to address and help the problem of unwanted pets in our community. In our adoption program, we have dogs and puppies, cats and kittens, rabbits, and small animals. Call 856-424-2288 or email us at [email protected] for more information. AWA has received the honor of receiving a FOUR-STAR rating for two consecutive years on CharityNavigator.org, the leading authority on comparing and determining charity fiscal responsibility.

We were thrilled to host the ASPCA Shelter Medicine residents as part of their three-year journey to becoming specialists in shelter medicine. Their visit was an opportunity to showcase our programs, from adoptions to spay/neuter services, while sharing ideas and learning from their fresh perspectives. This inspiring afternoon highlighted the vital role shelters play in saving lives and supporting communities. We’re grateful to contribute to their education and celebrate our shared mission: helping animals thrive. https://lnkd.in/eaG3KfuM #ShelterMedicine #AnimalWelfare #AWACommunity #Collaboration #LearningTogether

It's not too late to donate! We are just shy of our match goal. Can you help us reach it? Every dollar raised today for #GivingTuesday goes directly to AWA’s mission to save, care and write happy endings to stories for homeless animals and members of the South Jersey community through our programs. https://lnkd.in/e2v6ama3
