Raise the Woof Capital Campaign

The time has come to invest in our facilities and their long term sustainability so that we can give 100 percent of our time, energy, and resources to the animals that need us most.

It takes a village to accomplish the work we face each day. Much of the project has been funded thanks to generous donors and grantors; we need your help to cross the finish line and raise the final $625,388.

“These projects are not indulgences; they are crucial to ensuring safe, healthy conditions for the staff, the volunteers, and the animals they rescue. That’s why I’m making Raise the Woof a priority, and why I’d like to ask you to do the same.”

-Jeremy Foley, Friend of the Humane Society

Ever since Alachua County Humane Society, Gainesville Pet Rescue, and Helping Hands Pet Rescue joined forces in 2018 to become the Humane Society of North Central Florida, we have been on a mission to eliminate the needless euthanasia of healthy and treatable pets in our region.

We have achieved so much. We have dedicated, talented, driven staff. We have loyal hardworking volunteers. We have a strong track record of responsible fiscal management.

But our shelter currently faces significant infrastructure challenges. This is marked by the presence of buckets on the ground and empty kennels due to a persistently leaking roof and persistent dampness due to an outdated HVAC system. These ongoing issues take away time and resources from our life-saving efforts.
