We need Kuranda beds for our Bloomfield Facility! 

The Kuranda Dog Bed Company has created a DONATE A BED Program to help provide shelter dogs with a soft, dry off the floor place to relax (which every dog deserves).  The calming effect can reduce stress levels, which helps promote adoptions.

You can donate a Kuranda bed at a special discount, and it will be shipped directly to us in your name.  Donations that are given as gifts are acknowledged with a Special Gift Card mailed directly to the donor.

Your gift will provide a Simon Foundation dog with a comfortable Kuranda bed which will last for many years, and comes with a full One Year Warranty.

To donate a Kuranda bed to The Simon Foundation, Inc., please click on the link above, in the right-hand column of the page. Thank you for your support!
