ASTRO FOUNDATION WELCOMES YOU

WHO WE ARE

Rescuing Animals - Engaging Students - Enhancing Community

ASTRO Foundation is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) volunteer-based animal welfare organization dedicated to rescuing homeless dogs and cats from overcrowded shelters in the Oakdale/Riverbank area.

By working with a network of volunteers, foster caregivers, and local veterinarians, ASTRO Foundation is able to rescue hundreds of animals every year. We provide these animals with care and temporary homes until we can place them into their permanent homes.

ASTRO Foundation is currently raising funds to build a 4,800 sf no-kill pet adoption center to be located at 772 Wakefield Court in Oakdale, CA.  

WORKING ADOPTION EVENTS

ASTRO Foundation actively works with local students, encouraging them to volunteer, foster, and even help manage our social media accounts in order to learn about animal welfare while giving back to their community. We believe students will be critical in the future of animal welfare and plan to expand their volunteer and learning opportunities dramatically as we grow.

FOSTERING

Students help us save lives by fostering homeless pets. They are responsible for caring for the pets and bringing them to adoption events until the pets are placed in permanent homes.  Of course, adults can foster too!  The more fosters we have on our team, the more lives we can save. Contact us below to learn more.  

ASTRO Foundation has been recognized by the 2019 Best of the 209 with a Bronze award for Pet Adoption! Reader’s Choice is the local ballot for Oakdale, Escalon and Riverbank.

The Best of the 209 is for the total 209 area code. With over 150,000 individual votes this year, it’s super cool that Astro was recognized by area voters. Thank you!

THANK YOU TO OUR SUPPORTERS!
