Second Chance

JOIN US IN PROVIDING A
“SECOND CHANCE”
TO ANIMALS IN NEED

The Capital Area Humane Society investigates more than 6,000 cases of heinous animal crimes each year and provides a caring harbor for thousands of homeless and abused animals each year. Some animals come to Capital Area Humane Society with medical conditions requiring specialized medical treatment in order to lead happy and healthy lives. Because the Humane Society has no other form of funding available to treat these animals, the Second Chance Program was established in 2003.

Funds raised through the Second Chance Program are used specifically for medical treatment of animals that are relinquished by their owners to the Humane Society or rescued through our Animal Law Enforcement program. Treatments have included dental work, X-rays, blood work, heartworm treatment, cardiac evaluations, tumor removal, and several surgeries. Funds from the Second Chance Program also have been used to purchase specialty food and shampoo, as well as medical equipment.

The Second Chance Program raises funds through the generosity of local businesses, clubs and organizations that sponsor special fundraising events and from individual donations made to our Second Chance collection banks.

For more information on how you can help the animals by supporting the Second Chance Program please contact the Development Office at (614) 777-7387, ext. 221 or questions@cahs-pets.org
