The 2019 Give Atlanta Challenge is underway! From October 15 to November 15, 23 charities from across Georgia will be competing to see who can raise the most money, and the organization that wins will also take home a prize of an additional $17,000 at the end of the month. The past two years, the Furkids family came together to win the challenge (and the prize). As the two-time champion, we are the team to beat this year and the competition is stiffer than ever! 

Last year, we raised over $120,000 during Give Atlanta, and we were able to take that money and use it for the following life-saving work: 

• The Furkids Interstate TransFUR Coalition transported 1,113 animals to our partner organizations in the following states: MA, NY, IL, ME, MI, MN, NH, NJ, OH, PA, VT, and WI
• We adopted 3,155 animals into loving forever homes
• We saved the lives of 4,366 animals
• We secured the beautiful 9-acre property for the new Furkids headquarters in Cumming, and are well underway renovating its two existing buildings
