Paws Give Me Purpose Incorporated is a 501(c)(3) Sanctuary located in Southern New Jersey. Our mission is to provide a bridge of care that supports senior, hospice and special needs dogs so they can live their lives to the fullest.
We believe that all dogs deserve a second chance at life – especially those that need care, love, and understanding.
One of the most important missions here at Paws Give Me Purpose, beyond caring for the animals that call our Sanctuary home, is educating the public. The ultimate goal is to change the way that humans think of, and treat, dogs with special needs.
We are strictly a volunteer-run organization and all donations go directly towards the care of the Sanctuary residents. Know that any contribution you make is helping to make a difference in dogs’ lives!
