Humane Society of Alamance County
Our Mission
The Humane Society of Alamance County partners with our community to encourage compassionate citizenship and enrich the lives of companion animals. We are dedicated to promoting responsible pet ownership through services designed to reduce pet overpopulation and prevent cruelty and neglect.
Our Journey
Since our founding in 1971, we have spent over 50 years working to transform how society cares for animals. As a local non-profit sustained entirely through public donations and grants, we rely on the dedication of our volunteers to ensure that thousands of pets receive the care they deserve.
Our Care Model
We believe in the power of a loving environment, which is why we operate as a foster-based organization rather than a traditional facility. Our animals are cared for in private foster homes, where they receive individualized attention, medical care, and the comforts of a family setting while they wait for their forever homes.
Your Partner in Adoption
Adoption is a joyful partnership, and our thoughtful matching process ensures that every animal finds a home perfectly suited to their needs. By taking the time to understand both the pet and your family expectations, we help create lasting bonds that enrich lives for years to come.
