Get Involved

There are always loads of things that we need help with. 100% of our funds goes completely to the animals and so we are always looking for people to spare a little time for us.

At the moment we need help with managing our social media, writing inspiring guest blogs, and creating informative & educational content. So, if you feel that you have a little time to spare, then please drop us an email at admin@helpingpawsworldwide.org and let us know how you can help.

Raise Awareness

The more people that know about us, the more people that see what we do, and then the more people that can help us to help the street animals! It can be as simple as sharing one of our posts on Social Media, to telling your friends about us, to having a donation box at work, or even just a small flyer up on the wall! Obviously, we know the world isn’t fully open at the moment, but by raising awareness of what we do, not only has a direct impact on the animals but also helps to raise awareness of our cause!

Have a clear out

Why don’t you have a spring clean out, or a declutter? Just because you don’t want or use those items doesn’t mean that others don’t! List your items with eBay and any you can choose to either donate a percentage or the full amount that the item has sold for. The money comes directly thorough to us & eBay also reduce their fees when giving to a charity – Win Win! Just follow this link: https://www.charity.ebay.co.uk and choose Helping Paws as your charity!

Merchandise

We are looking for some creatives to help design & produce Helping Paws merchandise, with all the profits from the sales going to Helping Paws. We are thinking Cards, calendars & T-shirts. If you can help or have any other ideas, please get in touch at: admin@helpingpawsworldwide.org.

Gift Aid

If you are a UK taxpayer, then by signing up for gift aid it means for every £1.00 that you have donated, the UK government also gives us an extra £0.25! So, for example if you donated £10, that would mean we actually got £12.50! This is super easy to do, just fill in this form here: https://goo.gl/forms/2jXbU3fAYHFDW5Z53?hl=en and then every time you donate, we’ll automatically get gift aid on your donation!

Fundraise

There are so many ways to fundraise, doing a sponsored run, bake sale, silence. You name it there are ways to do it. Have a google, see what your friends are doing or drop us an email. The more challenging it is for you, the more it pushes you out of your comfort zone and helps you to develop. It helps us with much needed funds, and with raising awareness. So not only is it helping you stay motivated and push the boundaries, but it also helps us out!
