The Cat Coalition depends on donations from generous community members and organizations to meet our mission! We do not receive any government support.

CNYCC is a 501(c)3 tax exempt non-profit organization. Donations to CNYCC are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. Our tax ID number is 06-1688749. You can also make CNYCC a beneficiary in your will or investment accounts, 401(k), IRAs, and other funds.

Donations can be made in honor or memory of an animal or animal lover in your life. Honors and memorials are printed in our newsletters. For Facebook donations, which don’t allow you to add a note, just email us at cnycc@outlook.com with the information after you’ve donated so we can record it.

Note: If donations received to assist a specific cat’s medical costs exceed the costs incurred by that cat before it is adopted, the excess funds will be put into our Medical Fund and used for the veterinary costs of other foster cats at the organization’s discretion.

Please add a note if the donation is in memory or honor of a person or animal.
