Our funding supports San Diego Humane Society’s comprehensive Community Services, which help low-income individuals by providing essential resources that ease some of their financial burden.  Services include pet food distribution, veterinary assistance and community outreach.  This program bridges the gap between human services and animal welfare by keeping pets in loving homes with their owners. Animal lovers know and understand how pets ultimately enrich and enhance our lives as well. Herb and Judy adopted several pets from the San Diego Humane Society, and we are proud to honor them by continuing to support animals and seniors in need. The San Diego Humane Society has dedicated a plaque in their shelter facility to memorialize the generous contributions and efforts of Herbert and Judy Paige.

Thankful for Community Veterinary Program

“San Diego Humane Society’s Community Veterinary Program has been above my expectations. My dog, Lucy, unfortunately has terrible allergies and a kidney disease. When the staff come across special kidney disease food for Lucy they offered it to us – I truly appreciate it as it’s expensive. I myself am on a very limited budget and my excess goes to my bestie, Lucy. The techs and the vet are caring with Lucy. I’m so thankful that the vet services are available to me.”

Safety Net Foster Program success story

Patricia and her beloved dogs are back together after being separated when San Diego flooding claimed their home. Chihuahuas Anabelle and Sookie, along with Brownie, a Shih Tzu, were reunited with their mom Patricia after spending six days in our Safety Net Foster Program. Through this program, foster volunteers care for owned pets during times of crisis until they are able to reunite with their families. And what a joy it was to watch Patricia’s reunion with her three pups! Now staying in temporary housing that allows pets, Patricia could not be more grateful to have them back.
