Get Involved with Pennington County Humane Society

At Pennington County Humane Society, we believe in the power of community to create positive change for our furry friends. This page sheds light on the various ways you can support our mission to serve homeless, abused, and unwanted animals. Whether through donations, volunteering, or spreading the word, your involvement can make a significant difference in the lives of animals in need.

Make a Difference Through Donations

One of the most impactful ways to support the Pennington County Humane Society is through donations. Your contributions help us provide essential care for the animals in our shelter, including medical treatment, food, and safe housing. We rely on the generosity of our community to sustain our operations and improve the lives of the animals we serve. We offer various donation options, including one-time gifts, monthly contributions, and even sponsoring an animal in our care. Every dollar you donate goes directly toward improving the lives of homeless and abused animals in our community. We also have partnerships with local businesses for special fundraising events and campaigns, so keep an eye out for opportunities to support us while enjoying some community fun!
