help pay for your services?
No. We do not receive any tax support.
Our programs are supported by donations, grants and fees.
When I make a donation,

It stays locally! Donations help us provide
programs and services to our community. We’re not part of
any national organization, and we are not a government agency, so
all funds received are appreciated.

Can I make a donation
in honor of or in memory of a person or animal?
Yes. This is a great way to honor a special
person or animal in your life. For example, we often receive donations
in honor of a person’s bar mitzvah, birthday or wedding—just
to name a few. Please inform us of the person or pet to be remembered
or honored, including their address, and we’ll let them know
of your special gift.
We also have opportunities to purchase
honorarium and memoriam cards in bulk. Bulk honorarium cards are
perfect for wedding favors, birthday party goodie bags, and other
events that you want to provide a unique and thoughtful memento for
guests. Bulk memoriam cards allow animal-related businesses to show
their support to clients in an easy and efficient way. To learn more
about these cards

a thank you note and tax receipt after each donation. You should
receive this correspondence within a few days of our receiving your
support.

Can I donate at my
place of business or through payroll deduction?
Most workplace campaigns or organized fundraising
campaigns allow you to select the nonprofit organization of your
choice. Please check with your human resources department or campaign
coordinator. (Capital Area Humane Society is a member of
Community Shares)

How can I make my donation
go farther?
One way to stretch your support is through
matching gifts from your employer. With every donation you make,
you should check with your employer to see if your company can match
your gift. Some companies will match you dollar for dollar and others
even provide a 2:1 match!

Discover or American Express by phone or mail and Master Card, Visa
