At the request of generous donors, the Maclean-Cameron Animal Adoption Center is launching a special holiday initiative; The Christmas Fund. Beginning Thanksgiving Day and running through Christmas Eve, December 24, 2025, this fund offers an incredible opportunity to make twice the impact on animals in need.
Every day, our team works tirelessly to provide a safe, caring, and compassionate haven for homeless, abandoned, and at-risk animals throughout North Central Montana. From emergency intakes and medical care, to behavior support, enrichment, and adoption services, we are often the only place these animals have to turn. Your support ensures that frightened strays can find warmth and families searching for a companion can meet their new best friend. Donations are truly the backbone of our mission, without community support, this life-saving work simply wouldn't be possible.
These compassionate contributors have pledged to match every donation, dollar for dollar, up to $50,000. That means together, we have the chance to raise $100,000 to support the homeless, neglected, and vulnerable animals who depend on us every day.
But to receive the match, all gifts must be made by December 24. Your generosity can go twice as far- providing safety, care, and hope when it's needed most.
Let's make this holiday season brighter for the animals who are still waiting for their chance at better life.
"When donating to the Maclean-Cameron Animal Adoption Center, we are reminded of the bequest process. As important as bequests are, donating more during our lifetime, and less after death, delivers, a privileged advantage, in that we can witness the considerable current benefits we contribute to the animals of today. They need our help now. Perhaps poet R.D. Richards said it best."
-The Christmas Fund Donors
I would rather have a single rose
From the garden of a friend,
Than have the choicest flowers,
When my stay on Earth must end.
I would rather have the kindest words
Which may now be said to me,
Than flattered when my heart is still,
And this life has ceased to be.
I would rather have a loving smile
From friends I know are true,
Than tears shed' round my casket,
When this world I've bade adeiu!
Bring me all your flowers,
Whether pink, or white, or red.
I'd rather have on blossom now
Than a truckload when I'm Dead!
