From their website: "PAWS (Pets are Wonderful Support) provides task, financial, and informational assistance to pet owners living with HIV/AIDS to ensure that they are not separated from their animal companions when they need each other the most.
In 2014, 112 clients and 149 pets received PAWS services, 11,588 lbs of pet food, litter, and treats were distributed, 57 pets received veterinarian assistance and 13 pets received in-home and foster care assistance."
