National Animal
Shelter Week
One gift = 3X the impact
Your love can change everything for animals and their people
It's our biggest match of the year! This week, November 18-24, your gift will be tripled, up to $50,000, thanks to a generous match from an anonymous group of animal lovers. That means triple the lifesaving vet care, triple the resources for community pets and the people who love them, and triple the second chances for animals in need.
What is National Animal Shelter Week?
Established in 1996 by the Humane Society of the United States, National Animal Shelter Week is a celebration of animal shelters and the staff who work tirelessly to protect animals and provide support and resources for the people who love them.
The event is celebrated annually by animal organizations nationwide – including Animal Humane Society. This week-long event plays a crucial role in the work we’re able to do year after year, and that’s in large part thanks to you: our animal-loving community.
AHS wouldn’t be able to provide the critical services that it does without your support. Thanks to generous donations in previous years’ National Animal Shelter Week, more animals have found loving, safe homes, more pets and their families have had access to high-quality, low-cost vet care, and more resources have been provided to community members in need.
This year, you can triple your impact for animals
Thanks to this year’s generous match, every dollar you donate this week means TRIPLE the impact for animals in need. What does that look like in practice?
Help us make a difference for animals in need
Our work is only made possible by generous animal lovers like you. Share one of the digital postcards below with your friends and family, and help them make triple the impact this week.
Malnourished stray dog gets second chance thanks to your support
When Majesty was brought to Animal Humane Society as a stray, she weighed just 35 pounds. At 6 years old, this sweet Doberman was clearly malnourished and in need of emergency care.
Against the odds, Majesty fought hard, continued to get better, and won our staff’s hearts in the process.
Watch Majesty's transformation -- all made possible by generous donations from our animal loving community.
