You love animals.
We love animals.
Together, we can help DuPage's abandoned and unwanted pets find new homes.

DuPage County Animal Care & Control (DCACC) is all about doing everything possible to give adoptable animals a second chance at life. DuPage Animal Friends, an all-volunteer 501(c)3 charitable organization, is committed to helping provide the lifesaving supplies, medical care, and program funding that fall beyond the scope of Animal Care & Control's limited operating budget. Your contribution to DuPage Animal Friends goes straight to work helping thousands of homeless pets every year that enter DCACC needing care and shelter.

The Human Race for the Pet Race​
Support DuPage's shelter animals by running, walking or donating.

The Human Race is a family friendly ‘feel good’ fundraiser event supporting local charities including DuPage Animal Friends. Our goal is to raise $10,000 to help equip the new game-changing spay/neuter veterinary vehicle with medical supplies and equipment.
