Can you help me save animals? 

The world is a lot right now. I know. You’re bombarded with news, causes, and problems so big they feel impossible to fix. But here’s something simple, tangible, and powerful: helping animals and the people who love them. (Because at HSHV, people are animals too.) 

Our shelter is well known for matching adoptable animals with their loving forever homes.
But the work our organization does goes FAR beyond that. 

• Our cruelty and rescue team saves animals from cruelty and neglect, and provides rescue services for injured, ill, or orphaned animals--including wildlife.
   
• Our Friends for Life program ensures that seniors and other folks in crisis in Washtenaw County are able to keep their pets in the loving homes they already have.
   
• Our affordable vet clinic provides accessible options for keeping pets happy and healthy.
   
• Our Bountiful Bowls pet food pantry keeps hungry bellies full and also provides cat litter to pet parents in need.
   
• Our temporary emergency shelter program provides relief to families and individuals in crisis, and prevents animals from being permanently separated from their humans.
   
• Our animal advocacy program fights for better laws to protect animals.
   
• Our Love Train program partners with other organizations to transport homeless animals from areas with fewer resources.
   
• Our TNR program helps unsocialized community cats to live safer, healthier lives while controlling overpopulation.
   
• Our humane education program inspires both kids and adults to care for animals responsibly and create a more humane world full of kindness for all kinds.
   

And none of it would be possible without supporters like YOU. If you’re looking for a way to make the world a little brighter—this is it. Love Starts Here. 

Every dollar makes a difference.

Thank you so much. Your love saves lives.
