The only personal information we collect is supplied directly by you through the use of online and offline forms (for example, donation form, volunteer form, surrender form, donation checks and online submissions, merchandise sales, etc.).

• Giving information

• Information on events attended, publications received, and special requests for program information

This confidential information is kept on file for IRS purposes.

This information is shared with board members, volunteers and consultants only on a confidential and need-to-know basis. We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to others, nor send donor mailings on behalf of other organizations.
