The story of Leroy, a dog VHS took into care in August 2018 when found with gunshot wounds and in need of urgent medical care, has touched many hearts. Leroy is currently recovering and is an example of how we take the hard cases and give animals a second chance in the hearts and homes of people who will truly care for them. Buy we can’t do this without your support — and monthly donors are the lifeblood of our organization. Please consider becoming a VHS Pet Partner and Monthly Donor today and help us save more Leroys.
As a non-profit organization, the Victoria Humane Society depends entirely on donations from kindhearted people like you. Monthly Donations are our lifeblood. Every month, we rescue literally dozens of dogs and cats, and sometimes other small animals, many from horrific circumstances such as neglect, starvation and abuse. The associated costs of rescue are significant, from arranging transportation for the animals out of remote communities and into our care, to emergency medical bills to save animals lives, to spay and neuter costs, vaccinations, hospitalizations, medications and on-going food costs and incidentals.
It’s a major monthly load and a dependable cash flow allows us to keep operating month by month and allows us to keep up with a growing demand. Monthly donors are literally our most critical form of support. We would not be here if not for Monthly Donors.
Friends, at VHS, we don’t turn our backs on animals that may not have been born perfect, or have been injured, abused or neglected yet could still live happy lives if only they could get the care they need. Helping animals that many other rescues would not touch, is one of our pillars. We believe in second chances for animals (and humans) and we have so many happy outcomes. Some of the happiest are the stories where an incredible family adopts a 3-legged dog, or a one-eyed cat, or a Wobbly Cat, as some of you may recall. Monthly donors make the difference. Help us turn those hard cases into happy tales, ‘er tails!
Best of all, monthly giving is convenient. With payments spread out over the year, monthly giving is more financially doable, and allows you to know you are saving lives - not just once, but every single day! You can do more good and make a bigger impact over a longer period of time and feel less pain in your pocketbook! Here is an example of how Monthly Giving helps VHS.
Even small amounts give animals a second chance.

Help us treat the saddest cases, including medical emergencies.
I have had many rescued pets throughout my lifetime and I’ve seen firsthand how many animals end up abandoned or neglected and needing homes. The work VHS is doing, the way they do it and the sheer number of animals they have saved in just a few short years astounds me – and I want to see it continue. That’s why I liked the idea of being a monthly donor. It’s a way of making a difference over the long run.
This 12 week old pup arrived into care with a leg that she was unable to use... an emergency vet visit and it was determined she had a broken hind foot. After 6 weeks of vet care she was on the road to running around and adopted into a great home! Please help more dogs like Bailey!
Little Marty is just 3 weeks old. He and his siblings were rescued by one of our volunteers after their mom was hit by a car. We bottle fed them (all 5 of them), socialized them, and medically treated them for weeks. And right now, they ready and waiting for adoption! Please help more kitties like Marty!
