End of Year Giving: Double Your Dollars Through December 31

DOUBLE your donation today! Thanks to our Board of Directors, we're matching dollar for dollar up to $27,000! That means your gift will make two times the impact to save pet lives. With your help, we can care for our animals in need and help them find the forever homes they deserve.

Double my dollars now!

At any given time, the Humane Society of Southwest Missouri can house up to 300 animals, not including the ones in our foster homes. When an animal needs a foster to give them love and care outside of the shelter environment, we provide all supplies for them! We are a nonprofit organization that does not receive any government funding and relies 100% on donations. Please donate to give animals in need a second chance at life.
