We give animals hope and a second chance.

For more than 150 years, the Atlanta Humane Society has stood as a pillar of support for animals and people in our city. When you give, you are helping homeless animals find loving homes, offering medical care to those in pain, and supporting outreach programs that uplift our entire community.

Your Support Changes Lives

Your gift impacts pets and people in our community. And, just last year, so many lives were changed because of your support.
