Gemma and Daisy didn’t choose this suffering. But thanks to compassionate people like you, more animals like them have a chance to survive, to heal, to trust again, and be home for the holidays.
Double the impact of your donation this Giving Tuesday! Thanks to our generous match sponsors: Helmutz Landscape & Interlock, the GHS Board of Directors and a local family foundation your gift of $100 becomes $200 and $250 becomes $500, making the world of difference for homeless animals.
At any given day, the Guelph Humane Society (GHS) provides care and shelter to more than 150 homeless animals. Many experience compassion for the very first time in our care. A gentle hand, a warm bath or a clean blanket to provide warmth all help transform a scared, vulnerable animal to a trusting one. You have helped make many of these transformations possible.
When Gemma and Daisy arrived at our doorstep, the sight broke our hearts. They were emaciated, dehydrated, and too weak to lift their heads. Their ribs showed through their thin fur. From the moment they arrived, it was clear: these girls had been surviving on their own for far too long. Their bodies were so fragile and malnourished that even feeding them posed a serious risk.
That’s why our expert team created a specialized refeeding plan. Small, frequent meals. Constant monitoring. Round-the-clock care. Slowly, gently, we helped them rebuild their strength, one step, one meal, one day at a time.
This kind of care takes time. It takes resources. And it’s only possible with your support.
This Giving Tuesday, a day dedicated to generosity, we are looking to raise $75,000 to transform the lives of every single animal that comes through our doors. As a close supporter of the work we do, I know you can help us achieve this ambitious goal.
That’s why we are excited to announce that a group of generous donors will match the first $15,000 in gifts made today through December 2nd.
That means your gift will have double the impact: $100 becomes $200 and $250 becomes $500 thanks to our generous match sponsors: Helmutz Landscape & Interlock, the GHS Board of Directors and a local family foundation.
Every dollar donated helps us achieve our goal to help animals like Gemma and Daisy. Your support today isn’t just a donation—it’s a lifeline.
Give the gift of a second chance. All it takes is your click today.
