About the Nonprofit
Visit Our Website
Our mission is saving lives, educating communities, and completing families. When it comes to saving lives, HSHC takes in over 4,000 animals each year including over 1000 at risk for euthanasia in other Indiana shelters.
In fact, the Humane Society for Hamilton County is one of the only open admission, truly no-kill shelters in the United States.
Our community outreach programs connect children, seniors, Hoosier veterans and more with the healing power of pets every day…and our youth education programs are planting the seeds of kindness, responsibility, and philanthropy in thousands of children each year.
Our advocacy for animals reaches far beyond Hamilton County as we have taken a leadership role in fighting breed discrimination and better laws to protect animals.
The commitment to our mission doesn’t stop with Hamilton County. We’ve always shared available resources to save as many out-of-county animals as possible…and we won’t stop until all Hoosier animals have a chance to live, love, and be loved.
