We want to thank the many community businesses and organizations who have chosen to support Alexandria’s animals this holiday season. Find a list below of ways you can participate:

  • District Dogs is hosting “Home for the Howl-i-days” and matching donations to the AWLA up to $10,000. Click here to donate and have your donation matched by District Dogs.
  • Priority Automotive Group is sponsoring adoption fees for all small mammals and adult dogs and cats here at the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria through the month of December.
  • Springfield Animal Hospital (6580 Backlick Rd., Springfield, VA) has a Giving Tree in their lobby and some of Alexandria’s animals are included. Stop by and choose an animal’s wish list ornament from the tree, and shop for their gifts. Return the presents to the Springfield Animal Hospital for them to deliver.
