“Humane Society” and “Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals” (SPCA) are generic terms freely used in the United States and Canada by animal organizations that have no connection to one another or to national organizations such as the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), based in Washington, D.C., or the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, in New York City. And yet, local shelters are often stymied in their fundraising efforts by people who have “given to the national organization” and consider their charitable efforts complete — even though money given to the HSUS and ASPCA is used to fund their own programs, not those of the local shelters.

Don’t forget your local animal shelter or rescue groups when giving.

These groups do the most for the animals in your community.
