The Allie Foundation

The Allie Foundation is a public charity that raises money in three ways: From donations through its sponsoring companies, Cat-in-the-bag Co. and StarShine Soaps and Sundries; yearly fundraising events; and private donors, big and small. Those donations are then dispersed to organizations that help abused and neglected animals, through gifts and grants.
Allie was a Calico cat who spent 17 years as a beloved family member and business partner to the Cat-in-the-bag team. Cat-in-the-bag Co., the founding company of The Allie Foundation, is a family business near Pittsburgh, Pa., which designed and markets the Cat-in-the-bag Cozy Comfort bag-style cat carrier.
