Why This Program Is Critical

Families entering PADS often face an impossible choice: safe shelter or their beloved pet.

The Stevie Project removes that barrier by offering temporary, no-cost care for pets while families focus on stabilizing their lives.

​

  • 48% of domestic violence survivors delay leaving an abuser because they do not want to leave their pets behind.

  • Over 70% of women in domestic violence shelters report their abusers threatened, injured, or killed a pet as a form of control.

  • Less than 20% of homeless shelters nationwide accept pets.

 

By working together, PADS and Granny Rose can remove one of the biggest barriers to safety and stability: fear of losing a beloved animal.

​

No grants. No government funding.

Just heroes like you.
Because of your generosity, the Stevie Fund provides complete care for every Stevie Project.

​

Every dollar stays within the Stevie Project to directly support PADS families and their pets.

We believe no one should have to choose between shelter and their best friend.
