Our Mission: Supporting Tennessee Animal Shelters
Every animal deserves care, compassion, and a chance at a better life. 🐾
Our own pets make our days better. Across Tennessee, shelters and rescues care for thousands of animals who are still waiting for that chance, often on tight budgets. Food, medical care, bedding, and enrichment all add up. We want Pawvora to help.
That's why Pawvora gives back to animal shelters and animal welfare organizations throughout Tennessee: East, Middle, and West. Rather than committing to a single shelter, we support different organizations over time, so we can help animals in as many communities as possible.
Our giving policy
Our giving program launched on October 22, 2026, and applies to orders placed on or after that date.
- 5% of product sales. We set aside 5% of what customers pay for products.
- Donations at every $100 milestone. Contributions build up in a donation balance. Each time that balance reaches $100, we make a donation, then start building toward the next $100.
- Organizations across Tennessee. We rotate donations among eligible shelters and animal welfare organizations in East, Middle, and West Tennessee.
- Official channels only. We give through each organization's official donation page or another method the organization confirms.
Because contributions are pooled until a $100 milestone is reached, an individual order doesn't send money directly to a specific shelter.
What counts toward the 5%
Product sales means the amount customers pay for products, after any discounts. It doesn't include shipping charges, sales tax, shipping-protection fees, or gift card purchases. Canceled orders aren't counted, and refunded amounts are subtracted. If a refund happens after a donation has been made, we subtract it from the next balance. We never reduce a donation that has already been made.
How we choose recipients
- A registered nonprofit (for example, a 501(c)(3) organization) or public animal shelter that serves animals in Tennessee
- Accepts donations through an official, verifiable channel
- Eligible under Tennessee's charitable solicitation rules
- Rotated across East, Middle, and West Tennessee over time
Pawvora donates to these organizations independently. They are not Pawvora partners, and a donation or listing here never means an organization endorses Pawvora or our products.
Our Impact
We'd rather show you than tell you. Each donation is listed on this page with the organization, the date, and the amount. Where an organization agrees, we'll also link its confirmation.
No donations have been made yet. Our first one will appear here when our balance reaches $100.
