TAPS FOUNDATION

In 2021, the TAPS Foundation was created as a supporting organization of TAPS to help ensure that our mission to save shelter animals continues for years to come.    The Foundation’s goal is to help TAPS build toward the future, address emerging needs,  create long-term viability and stability to help support our mission for as long as homeless dogs and cats need a safe-haven to call home.

You can be an important part of the TAPS legacy by creating a legacy of your own when you leave a meaningful gift to the TAPS foundation either during your lifetime or as part of your estate planning to help TAPS carry out our mission to save the lives of homeless dogs and cats for years to come.  Your gift has the power to not only help dogs and cats today, but for future generations too.

If you are interested in learning more about how you can create a lasting impact on the lives of homeless shelter pets through a gift to the TAPS Foundation, please contact your tax or financial advisor.
