SPONSORED CHARITIES
THE ST. LOUIS PAGAN PICNIC IS THRILLED TO SPONSOR CHARITIES VERY CLOSE TO OUR HEARTS.
CARE STL is the no-kill open-admission shelter dedicated to saving and caring for the unwanted, abused, neglected, and homeless companion animals of the City of St. Louis.
In response to the City of St. Louis Department of Health's call for proposals to improve the existing animal shelter, CARE STL was established in 2018. The city-run shelter had a distressing euthanasia rate of 55%, prompting Weng Horak to found the organization. After being awarded the contract, CARE STL has been managing the city shelter since March 2019. The mission at CARE STL is to foster a supportive community rooted in collaboration, compassion, and care for both people and animals.
CARE STL is dedicated to serving the residents of St. Louis by providing adoption services, fostering, and more. Their focus is solely on ensuring the safety of the city's residents and animals and protecting the public from potentially dangerous strays. They work alongside the city to enforce Title 10 of the City Code of Ordinances, which pertains to animal care and control. Their ultimate goal is to achieve the highest live release rate in the nation, guided by proper sheltering practices.
CARE STL strives to save and rehabilitate community dogs and cats, regardless of their perceived friendliness or socialization with humans. Additionally, they rescue orphaned animals, pregnant animals, and their newborns. They rehabilitate animals suffering from treatable contagious illnesses and offer emergency medical assistance. The CARE STL team also focuses on enriching the lives of poorly socialized, shy, or traumatized dogs. Animals surrendered to them are evaluated by their veterinarian and professional behaviorist staff to determine the best course of treatment. CARE STL works with animals considered to have "behavior problems" or "medical problems" and even evaluate those signed over for euthanasia. Their care is not based on arbitrary color, age, or breed criteria.
Vision: CARE STL envisions a world where all animals are nurtured in body, mind, and heart.
Mission: CARE STL exists to create a supportive community rooted in collaboration, compassion, and caring for people and animals.
CARE STL's core values involve providing progressive programs and services to the St. Louis City community by:

CDDB Community Charity is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that lives very close to Pagan Picnic's heart. CDDB hosts fundraisers throughout the year. Among these events are their Women's Moon Lodge (LGBTQ+ friendly), held each May at Cuivre River, and their Mabon camping event each September.
The money they raise through these events, as well as their direct fundraising efforts, goes directly back to the local Pagan Community by assisting people in earth-based religions through hand up grants, with medical bills, utility bills, car repairs, and other general cost of living expenses for qualifying applicants.
From CDDB "CDDB Community Charity is dedicated to assisting members of the earth-based spiritual community in the Greater St. Louis area and to fostering community involvement in the same. CDDB will provide economic and emotional support to the community member in the form of utility payments, groceries, and medication assistance so the member may focus on improving their situation."
The Greater St. Louis Area Pagan Community owes a huge debt of gratitude for the hard working folks of CDDB!
