Lend a Paw
There are many ways for you to Lend a Paw to the dogs and cats of the Valley Animal Center. The programs listed below explain how you can give by simply recycling used printer cartridges, plastic bottles and aluminum cans, donating your used vehicle or by visiting our online partners.
Autos for Animals
Donate that extra car, truck, boat, or RV to help the Valley's homeless pets. If you have a vehicle taking up valuable space, please contact our Administration Office at 559-233-8690, Monday - Friday, 9:00am - 5:00pm or by email at info@valleyanimal.org and ask how Autos for Animals can work for you. We'll take the vehicle off your hands and use the money to help the animals. Best of all, the donation is tax deductible! Please have information, such as the vehicle identification number (VIN) and registration, ready when you call.
Paws to Recycle
We've all become experts at saving our recycling and putting it into the blue bins for the City, but what if your recyclables could directly benefit the animals? It can. Keep your soda cans and plastic bottles separate from the rest of your recycling and bring them down to the shelter. The volunteers here will take the recycling in and turn your cans into cash to help the animals living in the shelter.
Cartidge Recycling
The Valley Animal Center is collecting empty inkjet cartridges for recycling. We receive up to $4 for each cartridge recycled. Cartridges can be deposited in our collection bin located in our Grand Lobby. The only types of inkjet cartridges not accepted are large laser cartridges and Epson brand cartridges.
