Mission
Statement
Partners
for Animal Welfare Society of Dearborn County, Inc., (PAWS) is an
all-volunteer nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives
of unwanted and abandoned animals in Dearborn County, Indiana. PAWS is
committed to developing local support and funding for a new animal
shelter to meet the county's needs. We work to eliminate homelessness
and end the cycle of pet overpopulation by vigorously supporting
spay/neuter programs, promoting successful adoptions, and increasing
education of spaying and neutering. We strive to increase the health
and quality of life of animals housed at the shelter through testing,
vaccinations and medical care.
History
PAWS
was chartered as a non-profit organization in the state of Indiana in
April 2001. PAWS received tax exempt status under Section 501(c)3 of
the IRS code in February 2002.
