Every year thousands of animals are admitted to San Bernardino County Animal Shelter facilities, which include the Big Bear and Devore Animal Shelters. The homeless animals in San Bernardino County need your help and ARFF is the only non-profit charitable organization established to specifically aid and help the animals cared for at these facilities. 

In calendar year 2019, the following are just a few of the many ways ARFF provided direct support to the animals cared for at the County’s Animal Shelters:

• Paid for the spay/neuter surgeries for animals adopted during the County’s special adoption events.

• Sponsored the 8th Annual Homeward Bound Mega Pet Adoption Event. Invited the County’s “animal rescue group partners” to participate in this event which resulted in 82 pets being adopted into new homes.

• Sponsored a free "Chip or Treat" event, which provided dogs with a free microchip and vaccinations.

• Sponsored "Spay-Cation" cat spay/neuter vouchers campaign.

• Sponsored Chihuahu, Shepard and Pit Bull spay/neuter voucher program.

• Purchased educational materials and items that were used to promote the humane treatment of pets.

• Paid for the spay/neuter surgeries for animals adopted during NBC's Clear the Shelters Day.
