Our mission is to support Central Florida animal welfare by granting funds to local non-profit and government agencies for shelter/rescue, spay/neuter, and community education programs. 

We are a strictly volunteer organization with no paid employees. We pride ourselves on fiscal and veterinary responsibility. 

We started as a handful of pet lovers who came together to raise money for Central Florida animal welfare. Since then we have grown into a  501(c)(3) non profit organization made up of several hundred volunteers.

Franklin's Friends raises money primarily through two signature events -  HOWL-O-WEEN and the "Unleashed. Uncorked. Unframed." gala.
