Be part of this exciting opportunity to leave your mark on C.A.R.E.’s animal rescue and adoption center.

Please join the Community Animal Rescue Effort (C.A.R.E.) in building a brighter future for homeless companion animals. C.A.R.E. is working to enrich the humane traditions of the North Shore with a volunteer-run rescue and Adoption Center for unwanted dogs and cats, puppies, and kittens. C.A.R.E. has laid the foundation for achieving this goal by purchasing and renovating the building in the heart of Skokie at 4927 Main Street. The Adoption Center opened in August 2018.

The purchase of the building was made possible by the contributions of devoted donors over the course of a decade, a committed volunteer team holding hundreds of fundraising events, and C.A.R.E.’s careful fiscal management.

We are inviting others who share our commitment to be part of sustaining an animal shelter that rescues neglected companion animals and adopts them into lifelong homes. Together we can ensure a permanent legacy to the humanitarian values and spirit that makes this shelter possible.

All donations for the capital campaign of $500 or more will be included on a permanent display at the building. And, C.A.R.E. is honored to provide opportunities for donors to honor beloved pets and pet lovers or to show their own support for C.A.R.E.'s humane work through naming opportunities at the Adoption Center.

For all large donations or to secure naming rights, please contact Gail Lovinger Goldblatt at gail@CAREnorthshore.org or 847-602-5067.
