The difference you can make as a Golden Circle member

Golden Circle members are among the most devoted and loyal supporters of Best Friends and our mission.

You are invited to become a Best Friends' Golden Circle member. This special group is for people who understand that they aren’t just providing support. They are saving lives.

Through annual donations of $1,000 or more, Golden Circle members provide the critical resources necessary to support and expand Best Friends' programs throughout the United States.

Golden Circle gifts are dynamic, and have the flexibility to be directed wherever they are most needed.These critical funds have an extraordinary impact on our work together, providing assistance to animals to find permanent and loving homes, assisting communities to establish spay/neuter programs, providing emergency rescue and response to animals in dire situations, and providing public education that's critical to end the killing of dogs and cats in America's shelters and Save Them All.
