San Diego County Credit Union is collecting monetary donations for Presents for Paws, a special holiday fundraising campaign benefiting animal shelters and rescues in San Diego, Orange and Riverside counties.
This marks the 14th consecutive year that SDCCU has supported local organizations through its Presents for Paws campaign.
“At SDCCU, we care deeply about our furry friends and the organizations that protect them,” SDCCU President and CEO Teresa Campbell said. “We’re proud to continue supporting local animal shelters and rescues through efforts like Presents for Paws. Every donation, big or small, helps provide care, comfort and second chances for animals in need this holiday season.”
The credit union’s goal is to raise $10,000 this holiday season. In San Diego County, donations will benefit San Diego Humane Society; in Riverside County, donations will benefit Animal Friends of the Valleys; and in Orange County, donations will benefit the Home Free Animal Rescue & Sanctuary. Monetary donations will be accepted in-branch or online at sdccu.com/paws through the end of November.
Last holiday season, SDCCU’s Presents for Paws donation efforts collected more than $46,000 for shelter and rescue animals in need.
