Operating Expenses

 

BECOME A SUSTAINER AND JOIN THE KIBBLE KLUB!

Learn more here.

Your financial contribution, large or small, is always welcomed and deeply appreciated. Please consider donating to fund shelter operations so that we can continue to give our animals the help they need.

BENCHS is an independent, nonprofit organization with 501(c)(3) status, making your contribution tax-deductible. BENCHS is not supported by any municipalities or animal welfare organizations. We owe our success to many compassionate, kind-hearted people who support us through memberships, donations, estate bequests, and fundraising events.


The "SNAP Fund

BENCHS created the Save Neglected and Abused Pets (SNAP) critical care fund to pay for the veterinary care of seriously ill, injured, and abused animals.

All animals coming into the shelter receive needed veterinary care; however, the BENCHS operating fund is unable to absorb the costs of extensive medical care and surgery.  Read more.

 

Donations can be dropped off at the shelter during business hours or mailed to:

BENCHS

1250 N. River Dr.

Mankato, MN  56001

All gifts are tax-deductible.


NEW!  Kwik Trip Gas Cards

BENCHS has paired with Kwik Trip to sell gift cards ($20, $50 and $100 values) that can be used for gas, groceries or other store purchases.  The best part is that 10 percent of the card sales goes directly to the shelter!

Purchase your cards at the shelter.  We can't change the price of gas, but we can help the animals!


Recycling Effort -- Save your Aluminum Cans!

This ongoing reycling effort generates needed income for the shelter. Bring your cans to the can corral in our parking lot.  Aluminum cans only, and they should be in bags that are tied shut.


 

MORE WAYS TO HELP

Make a gift in honor or memory of someone special. A gift in tribute of a person or animal is a wonderful way to show you care about them and the animals at BENCHS.

Double your gift through a corporate match. Some companies will match the charitable gifts made by their employees or retirees. Check with your human resources department.

Include BENCHS in your estate plan. Planned giving through your will or estate plan can be a rewarding legacy.

Donate stocks, bonds, mutual funds, real estate, or other assets.  This can benefit you as well as the animals -- check with your financial advisor.

Become a corporate or business partner.  Play an active role in the community while showing that you care.
