HELPING PAWS ANIMAL SANCTUARY INC.
ST JAMES CITY, FLORIDA

Helping Paws Animal Sanctuary, Inc. is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to providing compassionate care and permanent homes for nearly 200 cats and kittens, including those with special needs and illnesses such as FIV and FELV. Located at 10060 Mallory E Pkwy Unit D, Saint James City, FL 33956, this 'no-kill' shelter emphasizes nurturing environments rather than cages, ensuring each cat is looked after by compassionate volunteers and has access to amenities including toys, television with cat videos, and water fountains. Inspired by Thomas O'Malley, a treasured black feline who profoundly influenced the shelter's mission despite battling anemia, Helping Paws continues to honor his legacy in improving lives for FELV cats, while dispelling myths about black cats. Established on December 4, 2009, and recognized under Florida Model DOS as Florida Company Status registered N09000011602, with Directors Sharon Rousey and Maxine Boschke, and Executive Officer Marnie Miszewski, Helping Paws has been a beacon of hope for the animal shelter community. With their last annual report filed on March 5, 2024, they continue to thrive and expand upon initiatives funded in part by Maddie's Fund®, contributing substantially towards attaining a no-kill nation vision. Their efforts are supported through various donations, acknowledging that every contribution makes a profound difference.
