About this shelter

Doris Day Animal Foundation in Washington, DC

Doris Day Animal Foundation is a national, nonprofit 501(c)(3) public charity founded in 1978 with the mission to help animals and the people who love them, now in its fifth decade of continuing Doris Day's legacy and vision. Rather than operating as a direct-intake shelter, it funds animal rescue grantees nationwide, supporting programs such as World Spay Day, the Duffy Day Lifesaving Program, and initiatives to help senior pets stay with the people who love them. The foundation is based in Washington, DC, roughly 2 miles northwest of the city center, in a metro area that is home to 11 other animal shelters and rescues in District of Columbia.
