About The Team
Please JOIN OUR TEAM to start fundraising today!
The Michigan Animal Adoption Network (MAAN) is a Metro-Detroit non-profit organization founded in 1994 with a mission to decrease dog and cat homelessness and overpopulation.
MAAN works very hard to provide proper housing, straw, food, supplies and sterilization to animals in need. It also provides important pet-owner education on proper pet-care.
To date, MAAN has impressively adopted out more than 6,500 dogs/cats through the Adopt-A-Pet program, and assisted nearly 145,000 family homes through the Animal Care Network (ACN). ACN has rescued nearly 19,000 dogs/cats and spayed/neutered nearly 9,550 animals. These programs have proudly received national recognition from Nickelodeon News and Best Friends Animal Society. ACN even received an Animal Planet award nomination! This organization survives solely on donations from the public to continue lifesaving efforts.
MAAN frequently engages in special promotions and fundraising in an effort to grow their supporter base. The Michigan Animal Adoption Network continually strives for unique ways to fundraise, educate the public, and continue their street rescue efforts and low-cost spay/neuter program.
#PlungeForPaws donations will provide life-saving pet-food and pet-supplies for MAAN’s street rescue efforts for animals in need living in Pontiac, Michigan. Donations will provide straw for outdoor doghouse insulation, and much-needed winter pet supplies.
Please make a life-saving donation today, and help bring warmth to an animal in need this winter! Each dollar raised through the #PlungeForPaws will give a pet in need a second chance at life and the Christmas miracle they deserve. Thank you!
