The Animal Angel fund is designed to help animals with medical problems that, without your help, the shelter could not financially afford to pay for. This fund provides medical help to multiple animals at the shelter. A donation for a specific animal is deposited into this fund and used for whatever animal is in need at the time. We are fortunate to have several veterinarians in the Wilkes County and Lincoln County area willing to help our shelter animals. We are also associated with the University of Georgia and are able to utilize their services. We are a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization and all donations are tax deductible. Donations can be made to Washington-Wilkes Animal Shelter, P.O. Box 121, Washington, Ga. 30673
