Trust & safety
Organizer verification
Confirms approved identity information — not a guarantee of event outcome or future conduct.
Rescue relationship, shown honestly
A verified rescue/beneficiary relationship is a separate signal from organizer identity — never merged into one badge.
Venue & location privacy
Exact details are shown only according to the event’s approved visibility rules — sometimes only after RSVP.
Animal welfare comes first
Adoptable and demo animals follow welfare-first handling and environment conditions set by the organizer.
Fundraisers, clearly labeled
An authorized fundraising component is shown as its own separate, honest label — never implied by event trust alone.
Report an event or safety concern
Available on every listing — content, animal-welfare, and organizer concerns route to the right team.

List an adoption day, rescue drive, or foster-support event. Organizer and rescue-relationship verification are reviewed separately from event publishing.
