Sponsoring one of our events, both large and small, offers great exposure and valuable benefits packages. Whether an in-person event, an online lottery, or a gift for a silent or live auction, we have an option to fit your needs.

Matching Sponsorship is another great way to get involved. GHS supporters love to donate during match campaigns, knowing that their gifts can go even further. Leveraging your matching support can “double the impact”!
$1 in Sponsorship = $2 of Donor Support

Turn your passion into impact and make a difference for animals in your community.

Thank you for choosing to support the Guelph Humane Society (GHS)! There are so many meaningful ways to help animals in need, and hosting your own fundraiser or event is one of the most impactful.

Whether it is a workplace challenge, donation drive, garage sale, or something uniquely your own, every effort big or small, helps provide hope, care, and compassion to more than 3,000 animals in need each year.

You do not need to be an expert to get started, just a passion for making a difference. Our team is here to support you every step of the way.
