Become a Member

The moment you become a Best Friends member, animals start feeling it.

At the Sanctuary in Kanab, animals who might wait years elsewhere get the behavioral support, medical care, and time they need to become someone's everything.

In Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, New York City, Houston, and Northwest Arkansas, your membership fuels no-kill programs that are rewriting what's possible for pets in shelters across the country.

Beyond the Sanctuary and our Centers, your support embeds our staff in shelters who need the help, and backs the advocacy work that fights breed discrimination, shuts down puppy mills, and keeps community cats in their outdoor homes.

All so fewer animals end up in shelters in the first place.

You're not just helping an organization. You're the reason why the country is getting closer to no-kill every year.

The animals benefit from membership — and so do you

Your membership gift ensures that homeless pets get the love and care they need.

Plus, as a member, you'll receive a one-year subscription to Best Friends' bimonthly magazine, lodging discounts when you visit the Sanctuary, special invitations to events around the country, and quarterly newsletters and email updates to keep you in the loop.
