About Us
USA PAW (United Support Alliance for Pets and Welfare) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting, improving, and saving the lives of companion animals in Oklahoma and beyond. Based in south-central Oklahoma, we provide hands-on local care while coordinating national and international animal-welfare efforts.
Our Mission To protect, improve, and save the lives of companion animals through rescue, relief, advocacy, and collaboration ~ wherever the need is greatest.
Who We Serve Our work begins in Oklahoma, supporting local shelters, rescuers, and underserved communities. But our reach extends far beyond state lines. We respond to emergencies and partner with organizations across the United States ~ including Arkansas, Texas, and multiple disaster-response regions ~ and we continue to maintain long-term animal-welfare support in Puerto Rico and abroad.
What We Do
Local Rescue & Community Support We assist animals across south-central Oklahoma through direct rescue, medical care support, owner-assist programs, transport, and shelter partnerships.
Disaster Response & Emergency Relief When crisis strikes, we deploy teams, supplies, and logistical support to help animals and the people who care for them. From wildfires to hurricanes, we respond where others can’t.
National & International Outreach USA PAW works with shelters and community partners across the U.S. and worldwide to provide resources, training, transport, and long-term care initiatives.
Advocacy, TNR, and Education We support TNR programs, community-cat feeding stations, humane education, and policy advocacy that promotes animal protection and responsible care.
Our Values
Compassion ~ We believe every animal deserves respect, dignity, and kindness.
Integrity ~ We operate transparently, ethically, and with full accountability.
Service ~ We show up where we’re needed, regardless of borders or circumstances.
Collaboration ~ We elevate impact by working hand-in-hand with shelters, agencies, volunteers, and local leaders.
Resilience ~ We remain steadfast during crisis, hardship, and long-term recovery.
Why We Exist Animals depend on us. Communities depend on us. And during the moments when hope is fragile, USA PAW steps forward to protect the lives that cannot speak for themselves.
