Donate Today

Almost Home heavily relies on donations to be able to continue our rescue. Quite often, the cost to rescue a dog far exceeds our requested adoption fee.

The majority of our dog’s medical expenses surpass the adoption donation. Almost Home needs financial support from animal-loving individuals who can donate money toward medical bills and supplies. Almost Home Dog Rescue of Ohio is a registered charitable
organization and donations may be tax deductible. AHDRO accepts monetary donations via PayPal and Venmo. 

To donate, please either click the PayPal link, Venmo link, or mail a check the address below.

Bequests

The Gift That Lives On – How would you like to be a part of Almost Home Dog Rescue of Ohio’s future long after you are gone? Your bequest can do this!

The future of Almost Home relies on building a strong foundation now.  Adoption, spay/neuter, and educational programs can be expanded through the generosity of caring individuals. Planned giving is a way to help ensure the continued work of Almost Home Dog Rescue of Ohio. 

What better way to say “Thank You” to those animals that have touched our lives! Several different options of “Planned Giving” are available.

Contributions Through Your Will

Preparing a will is sometimes an emotional and thought-provoking endeavor. Whether you have accumulated vast assets or have only a few possessions, your will prevents legal complications and delays. It directs your personal representative to deal with your estate as you wish. 

Another important aspect of a will is that it allows you to provide for the animals you care about after your death. Whether this means your own companion animals or those at Almost Home, your will can continue a legacy of kindness. 

If you decide to support Almost Home Dog Rescue of Ohio through your will, you can specify a particular amount of money or an asset such as stock or property. Consider giving the remainder or a portion of the remainder of your estate after expenses and gifts to your loved ones have been paid out.  

The interest in real estate or a trust designated initially for the lifetime benefit of a loved one could be specified for a gift. Sometimes individuals prefer making a contingent gift that takes effect only under certain circumstances (e.g., “If my spouse does not survive me,”). Ask your attorney for further information.

What if you already have a will? Often you can add a bequest to Almost Home Dog Rescue of Ohio to your existing will simply by consulting your attorney about an amendment known as a “codicil.”

Giving through a Living Trust

If you would like to create an estate plan that allows some privacy and has additional features, a living trust may be something you wish to discuss with your attorney. A gift to the Almost Home from such a trust can be arranged upon your death, just as with a will.

When setting up your gift with your attorney please use the following designation:

Almost Home Dog Rescue of Ohio, Inc. 

c/o President

P.O. Box 1177

Powell, OH 43065

We are a tax exempt charitable organization 501(c)(3).
