Other Ways of Supporting The Safe Haven's Cats
From supporting us through our Amazon Wishlist, buying from our RedBubble shop, donating bottles and cans under our phone number, sponsoring cats or choosing from our rotating merchandise that is available at the Haven, we have a few other ways you can offer support.
The Haven has a shop on RedBubble as well. Check out the t-shirt and clothing options, phone cases and even wall clocks!
Would you rather donate in a different way? No problem, help support the Haven with much needed supplies (litter, food, enrichment items, etc.) for our in-shelter cats and for our fosters.

Sponsor a Safe Haven Resident Cat
Monthly and Yearly sponsorship is available. Sponsorship of a Safe Haven Cat is a minimum of $10 a month. This money goes towards helping with their food, litter, care, and medical needs.
With your yearly sponsorship you will receive a personalized photo of your Safe Haven Sponsored Cat!
This sponsorship payment can be made in person by cash or cheque, set up through PayPal, CanadaHelps Monthly Giving or e-transfer as a monthly donation.
Express donations are changing
To make things easier and more convenient for fundraising groups and individuals looking to donate their deposit refund, all donations through the Return-It Express program are now made through an individual’s personal Express account.
Phone numbers that were used to print group or charity Express labels may no longer work.
Why?
Phone numbers are only linked to personal Express accounts. That means if you enter a group’s old phone number, you’ll see the name of an individual on the screen, not the organization. The group’s old phone number is most likely connected to the personal Express account of the group/charity administrator and if you use the old phone number your donation will go to that person’s personal account, not the charity or group.
How to Donate Now
Open A Personal Express Account (if you don’t have one)
It’s simple. Just sign-up for a free Express account, it takes less than 5 minutes. Then choose how you want to donate: one-time donation or automatic donations after each bag drop-off.
One-Time Donation
Make a one-time donation from your deposit refund balance to a charity or fundraising group of your choice—right from the app or website. Simply search for the organization you want to donate to and choose it to receive your current deposit refund balance in your Express account. No phone numbers or labels needed.
NOTE: When making a one-time donation, it will be for your full account balance, partial redemptions/donations are no longer available. Donations cannot be reversed.
Automatic Donations
Set it and forget it! At any time in your Express account, you can set a group or charity to receive all your future deposit refunds automatically.
You can change to another group or charity at any time by updating your donation preferences in the app or choose to keep the deposit refunds for yourself.
NOTE: Donations cannot be reversed.
