WHAT IS DOMORE24 DELAWARE?
DoMore24 Delaware is a 24-hour day of giving designed to help nonprofits like Delaware Humane Association (DHA) and Delaware SPCA raise money to support our animal lifesaving efforts. Join us for this year’s 24-hour fundraising event to support our Tailroad Express Transport Program! By donating to our collaborative fundraising effort, you will directly impact the lives of pets and people throughout the state of Delaware and beyond!
ABOUT THE TAILROAD EXPRESS
In June 2021, DHA and Delaware SPCA announced our intention to merge. By combining, we will be able to grow our programs and services, saving even more animals. The merged organization will include our 3 current locations in Wilmington, Stanton/Christiana, and Rehoboth Beach.
As a combined organization with 3 separate locations, the need to transport our animals for adoption services, medical care, and general housing will significantly increase. Transporting animals safely requires a delicate variety of resources including transport vehicles, safety equipment, licensed drivers, cat and dog kennels, staff availability, and more.
DHA and Delaware SPCA also rescue animals from high-intake, open admissions shelters across the country, focusing on animals who would otherwise be euthanized. Many states have an overabundance of homeless, sick dogs and cats due to factors such as lack of spay/neuter programs, resources, and humane education.
Shelters and rescue organizations face a constant struggle to keep up with the influx of new animals and heavily rely on partnerships with animal welfare organizations like DHA and Delaware SPCA. Ongoing efforts to safely transport animals across state lines requires not only sufficient funding, but also medical care, food, shelter, and trained transport personnel.
HOW DOMORE24 HELPS US
Our Tailroad Express transport program is a critical part of our lifesaving work. Money raised through DoMore24 will provide us with funds necessary, not only to transport our animals safely, but to welcome homeless, at-risk animals and provide them with safe shelter, spay and neuter services, and medical care. With your gift, you will be helping more animals find forever homes safely — in Wilmington, Stanton/Christiana, Rehoboth Beach, and beyond.
