Creating a brighter future for our unhoused neighbors 
and their loved ones.

We envision a compassionate society where housing, meals, and healthcare are 
accessible to every family, two-legged and four-legged alike.

Annie and Millie’s Place helps people experiencing homelessness and crisis stay together with the pets they love.

For many people experiencing homelessness, their pets are family, providing companionship, comfort, and emotional support during some of life’s most difficult moments. Too often, however, a lack of pet-friendly resources can become a barrier to accessing the help they need. When we support people in crisis, we must also consider the animals who depend on them.

Annie and Millie’s Place bridges that gap by providing pet care support through partnerships with community agencies, volunteers, and direct outreach to people experiencing homelessness with their animal companions.

Why Your Gift Matters:

Your donation to Annie and Millie's Place helps sustain our programs that provide veterinary care, temporary foster placement, pet food and supplies, and emergency weather sheltering. By meeting these immediate needs, we build trust with people and their pets while connecting them to a growing network of community resources.

These services are the foundation for our vision of Co-Shelter: safe, secure overnight spaces where people experiencing homelessness and their animal companions can receive shelter together.

With your support on Colorado Gives Day, you can help ensure that having a beloved pet never has to be a barrier to finding safety, stability, and a path forward.

Mission

Our mission is to keep humans experiencing homelessness together with their fur family by evolving pet-friendly solutions, programs and resources.

Background Statement

Who are Annie and Millie?

Annie was a beloved sister, daughter, mother and friend who was experiencing homelessness with her dog, Millie. Because she was unable to bring Millie into shelter space with her, Annie chose to sleep outside, braving the elements with Millie by her side. After just seven months of this harsh journey, Annie died by suicide. We believe that had Annie and Millie been able to access safe and secure overnight shelter together she would be alive today. Our work is in their memory, creating safe places for all humans and their animal companions to remain side by side.
