Summer is a matter of life and death for animals in Atlanta.
It’s a painful reality we fight every year. Each summer, hundreds of puppies and kittens will be born homeless or unwanted. Other animals will suffer from exposure to dangerous heat and dehydration. Many will need shelter and round-the-clock care.
Yet, every summer, as the need for rescuing and healing Atlanta’s most vulnerable animals will skyrocket, the number of donations and adoptions will decline. And this year, as the ongoing economic crisis continues to impact our community, the situation is even more difficult — and the need is even greater.
That’s why your support is needed now more than ever.
And that’s why the Atlanta Humane Society is launching our Summer Fund Drive to rescue hurting animals during these tough summer months. Your generous gift today could mean the difference between life and death for Atlanta’s animals in need. Animals like Lanier…
When we first met Lanier, we didn’t know if she would make it through the day. Suffering from deadly parvovirus, the tiny puppy was dangerously ill. Her gums were white. She wouldn’t eat. She was so sick, she could barely lift her head.
Racing to stabilize her, our Shelter Medicine Team administered IV fluids, pain, and nausea medication, and monitored her constantly. After a week of intensive treatment, the little puppy made a miraculous recovery — and grew stronger every day. Thanks to your support, we could continue to be there for Lanier until she was healthy enough to go home to a loving family.
Please rescue and heal more animals like Lanier with your gift today. Your quick action will make it possible to provide shelter and medical care to all the animals who will need our help to survive this summer.
With gratitude,
