Caring for all of the animals at Danbury Animal Welfare Society (DAWS) requires a lot of time, love, money, and supplies. Please help by donating these “Wish List” items, the things we use in the day-to-day care of our animals and shelter operations.  The items we need most are in bold.

We also encourage you to hold a “Donation Drive” for the shelter at your school, place of employment, neighborhood, with your civic organization, youth group or troop.

Dropping off Donations

All donations can be dropped off Monday-Friday, 9:00 AM-2:00 PM and 6:00 PM-8:00 PM and Saturday-Sunday, 9:00 AM-4:00 PM.

If you need assistance with your donation or are dropping off a donation from a collection drive, please email daws@daws.org to schedule your donation drop-off.

You can find directions to the shelter, which is located at 147 Grassy Plain Street in Bethel, CT on our Visit Us page. Danbury Animal Welfare Society is a 501(c)3 charitable organization and your donation is tax deductible to the full extent allowed by law – ask for a receipt!
