Help Sick, Injured, Lost, and Abandoned Animals
Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority's operations are funded by the cities of Campbell, Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, Mountain View, and Santa Clara. Additional support from individuals, businesses, and organizations allows us to extend our services and help more animals in need. There are several ways to give listed below. SVACA is a nonprofit, and our Tax ID/EIN is 77-0574936.
