All Paws Matter

The Humane Society of Blue Ridge is a non-profit, no-kill shelter providing direct care and services to thousands of animals and families 365 days a year. We are not a government agency and are not affiliated with any national humane societies. We rely on donations and sponsorships to support our mission. 

Your monthly donation not only helps provide shelter for hundreds of homeless animals per year, but it also supports the following community programs:

• Pet Adoptions - We help hundreds of healthy cats & dogs each year from being euthanized through our low-cost adoption program. We had over 1,200 adoptions last year!
• Spay & Neuter - We promote spaying and neutering all pets to help the overpopulation crisis in our community. Adoption and low-cost programs help us ensure all dogs and cats are cared for.
• Trap-Neuter-Release (TNR) -Cats can have 3 litters a year with 4 - 6 per litter. Our trap and release program helped over 600 cats last year, preventing thousands homeless kittens.
• Community Pet Food Pantry -We help keep pets out of shelters and with their families by providing free food during financial crisis. Our monthly program provided over 10,400 pounds of food for families in need last year.
• Community Education - We provide caring, compassionate advice and resources to address animal concerns. We believe that we can do great things if we work together.

We prioritize efficiency, effectiveness, and transparency, so that every dollar makes a difference for the animals in our community. We keep the money in our mission.

 By supporting the Humane Society of Blue Ridge, you are not only supporting local animals but improving the quality of life for local residents and fur families too. We can make a difference together.  One dollar, one neighbor, and one pet at a time.
