About Us

Our organization began in 1992 and it is governed by a Board of Directors that are unpaid volunteers. We are supported entirely by memberships and donations. We are not funded by the City of Muskogee or any other level of government, nor are we affiliated with any other animal welfare organization.

Our facility is dedicated to Steve Yaffe, founder of Promoting Animal Welfare Society, Inc.

Without his initial efforts P. A. W. S. would not exist, and without the generous trust legacy which formed the "Steve Yaffe Charitable Trust" this facility could never have been built.

Our pledge to Steve.......

We pledge to make P. A. W. S. all that you hoped it would be.
