KSAR: Fundraising

From Kabul Small Animal Rescue’s Facebook:

We've got a fundraising update on the enormous amount of work done the past few months! We've put together an incredible volunteer fundraising team with years of experience, and they've been busy. Led by Molly S, members include Penny A, Jane G, Rebecca M, Norma W, Renate V, Patti G, Mary W, Joan M, and Cherie G, and this is a rundown of the ways we're raising funds, links to donation options, and what the team has been working on.

Website: is up and running, and we'll be updating and fleshing out the information there, especially on our adoptable animals. Through this website, we'll be sending out monthly updates and newsletters, and people can sign up to receive these and keep up with our animals. In tandem with this, we're now using MailChimp service to send out update emails and special funding requests for particular programs and animals.

Grants: our team is checking for eligibility of grants in money and in supplies/equipment and applying for all possible opportunities. KSAR is currently working with an accounting firm to complete our IRS third-party audit for the 2021 tax year, which will make us eligible for more foundations and funding opportunities.

Cuddly: we've been fortunate to again have Cuddly assist us with fundraising campaigns, the latest of which can be found at

My Giving Circle: we are now registered as a charity eligible for their quarterly grants, based on free voting by our supporters. In addition, we're now registered to accept donations through their site, so please visit, vote weekly, and share around. We are currently 500 votes away from being in the top 10 US Domestic Charities, which gives us the chance at receiving a grant from them:

Patreon: we will soon be launching a Patreon site, through which we'll give subscribers extra updates on animals and operations here in Kabul.

Merchandise: We'll soon have a 2023 calendar available for purchase. We've also still got some wonderful t-shirts, sweatshirts, tote bags, mugs, and other fun stuff available on Bonfire, including this:

The lifeblood of this organization and our savior this past year has been the steadfast backing of our supporters, and we are honored to have all of you with us as we plow forward and give our best to the animals here. Please keep up the incredible magic you do that keeps our lights on and bellies full. If you have ideas or opportunities you want us to look at or would like to get involved formally in our fundraising efforts, please email the team at and let us know. We are in this together!
