Wow 2020 certainly flew by (we’re not upset by that at all…what a year it’s been!), and with the holiday season starting, there are so many ways that you can give back to support our pets this year.

KC Pet Project Gift Guide

Gift a gift that gives back. When you purchase items from KC Pet Project’s locations at the KC Campus for Animal Care or Zona Rosa, you’re supporting the pets of our shelter. We have many great gift ideas this year at a range of prices, and all purchases support the pets of our shelter. The retail store at the campus features a wide array of items for pet lovers and the pets in your life.

KC Pet Project also has an online store with lots of great items for sale. Many of the items listed are not available in our retail store or at our locations.


Donate to Support the Pets of our Shelter

Gift the gift of hope to pets in need in Kansas City this holiday season. Your support of our organization and our pets helps us continue our lifesaving mission of caring for more than 10,000 pets each year.

As the pandemic continues, more and more families and pet owners are coming to us in need of help. When you donate, you’re not only supporting our pets but you’re helping people as well in our community.


Love Tags and Kennel Sponsorships

Love Tags

You have the opportunity to put your name on KC Pet Project’s new home at the Kansas City Campus for Animal Care! Your Love Tag donation will go directly toward the cost of the lifesaving care of our pets. 

These tags are permanently displayed at the KC Campus for Animal Care down the dog corridor. 


By sponsoring a dog or cat kennel, you will be providing the much needed funds that will handle the care, feeding and basic medical expenses for the dog or cat in your sponsored space.

Your contributions will be recognized with a plaque on the space you are sponsoring, and your plaque will be on the kennel for one year. Sponsorships are now available at the Kansas City Campus for Animal Care, the Pet Adoption Center in Zona Rosa or the Petco Pet Adoption Center in Overland Park, KS.

KCPP Giving Tree

Purchase a Giving Tree Ornament from our holiday tree at the KC Campus for Animal Care. These ornaments can be purchased for a donation that supports the pets of our shelter in our adoption center and retail store.

The ornaments for the tree were decorated by the students of area Pre-School, Elementary and Middle Schools. The students were given a virtual tour and presentation about KC Pet Project and were provided with a simple blank ornament. Students were asked to then decorate the ornament in any way they felt best represented our pets and organization. Schools involved were Global Montessori Academy (some even done by toddlers), St. Peters School, Notre Dame de Sion Lower School, Visitation School and St Agnes School.
