Kalamazoo Humane Society

The Kalamazoo Humane Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to animal welfare and protection in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Founded in 1897, the organization has served the community for over a century. With a small team of four employees, the Kalamazoo Humane Society operates with a revenue of over $10,000 annually. The Kalamazoo Humane Society offers a range of programs and services aimed at improving the lives of animals in the Greater Kalamazoo area. They operate a pet food bank, which provides food to approximately 500 animals daily. In partnership with the YWCA, they run a Safe Shelter program that provides a safe haven for pets of domestic assault victims. Additionally, they offer Operation Fix-It, a low-cost spay and neuter clinic open to the public. The organization also provides dog houses with shelter and straw to outdoor pets in their communities. The Kalamazoo Humane Society distinguishes itself through its innovative approach to animal welfare. As a non-sheltering facility, they collaborate with the Kalamazoo County Animal Services & Enforcement Department to address the needs of stray and homeless animals. Their focus on cruelty prevention, pet population control, and humane education sets them apart as a leader in the field. The Kalamazoo Humane Society can be reached online at kazoohumane.org.
