Dedicated to Saving Lives
We are a 501(c)3 non-profit and do not receive any state or federal funding, so we operate solely on donations. Donations to Coastal Cat Rescue are tax deductible and donation receipts can be provided upon request. Your generous contribution helps us pay for medical supplies, veterinary care, food, litter, and other supplies. As an all-volunteer, foster-based rescue, we are not paid any salaries, so every dollar goes directly to the cats and kittens in our care.
How to support us
Donate Money
Many kittens and cats are critically ill and/or injured when they come to us and require round-the-clock medical care and bottle-feeding, or emergency veterinary care. Monetary donations can help us afford surprise medical bills and expensive medication.
To mail a donation, please send to Coastal Cat Rescue, PO Box 741, Hingham, MA.
Other Forms of giving
Appreciated Securities:
Coastal Cat rescue can now help you to turn your tax problem into a tax deduction. By donating appreciated stocks, ETF’s and mutual funds to Coastal Cat Rescue you can receive a tax deduction for the value of the securities donated. It is a great way to avoid paying capital gains taxes on the sale of these securities while helping us to achieve our mission. Reach out to us if interested in learning more!
Sponsoring a Cat:
If you cannot commit to adopting a cat, consider sponsoring all or part of the adoption fee of one of our harder-to-adopt cats. This includes cats that are shy or have chronic medical issues that cause them to be overlooked by adopters. As a non-profit rescue, we rely on the adoption fees to cover our medical bills and cannot afford to waive fees for harder-to-adopt cats. However, a sponsored or discounted fee has been proven to improve a cat's chance at getting adopted.
Please email us for all other donation inquiries.
We have recently started using Givebutter to fundraise because it allows us to accept reccurring donations and provides the option for the donor to cover our processing fees.
We'd appreciate if you donate through Givebutter and consider a reoccurring donation, as one of our biggest issues right now is our lack of predicted fundraising dollars which is making it hard for us to plan for the future. We'd also appreciate it if you covered the processing fees while donating.
You can donate via the form here, or by visiting our Givebutter fundraising page.
