Giving Linens a Second Life. Giving Animals Greater Comfort.

We turn usable hospital linens into clean, comfortable bedding for animals in need, while helping keep valuable materials out of landfills.

Our Story

Linens for Animals began with a simple observation: animal shelters needed clean, comfortable bedding, while healthcare facilities had linens that could be put to good use instead of being discarded.

Founder Lori Birdsong saw an opportunity to connect those needs and give usable linens a second life helping animals.

Today, Linens for Animals helps provide a continuing supply of linens to shelters, rescues and the foster homes within them, and wildlife rehabilitators across the continental United States.

Comfort for Animals. Less Waste for the Planet.

We collect usable, sanitized hospital linens and redistribute them to organizations caring for animals. It’s a simple idea with a meaningful impact on both animal welfare and the environment.

Comfort for Animals

A continuing supply of clean, comfortable linens helps caregivers provide bedding, warmth and a softer place to rest for animals waiting for homes or recovering in care.

A Second Life for Linens

Keeping usable linens out of landfills helps healthcare facilities reduce waste and avoid unnecessary disposal costs while supporting animal care.

Making a Difference Together

Linens for Animals is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Our work is made possible through the generosity of healthcare facilities, supporters and volunteers who believe that something as simple as a clean linen can make a real difference.

Together, we’re creating brighter tomorrows for animals while putting valuable resources to better use.
