I'm honored to be a part of a capital campaign to provide a new, state of the art animal shelter for the abandoned, abused and homeless pets throughout my community. My family has been fortunate to have 4 shelter animals provide so much joy in our household. And I want to ensure that every pet has a shelter that provides the best care and comfort, a place that provides them the chance to find their "forever" home! Please help me reach my goal of raising $5,000 by donating today. And THANK YOU so much!!

Every pet deserves a happy, healthy life. For more than 3,800 lost and homeless animals in our community each year, that chance begins at the Lawrence Humane Society.

The Lawrence Humane Society is a critically-needed local resource for Douglas County and Lawrence, but is being held back by limitations of an aging, inadequate, and failing facility that is long overdue for replacement. By building a new, state-of-the-art shelter facility, the benefits to both pets and people are clear: more lives will be saved; the number of homeless and abandoned animals will be reduced; and most importantly, families will be strengthened -- by having the space to find the right home for every pet, and by helping keep pets and people together for the long-haul.

We need the community's help to make this project a reality.

Whether you can chip in $5 or $5,000, every dollar will make a difference to the thousands of animals that will receive care, life-saving medical treatment, and love in our new facility. Donate now or become a fundraiser to help us reach our $7.5 million fundraising goal by the end of 2017.
