Helping People Help Pets!
It’s pets and their humans that make difference! Our stats demonstrate how our community supports our mission. When you consider that the HSDC is not supported at the county, state or federal government level, it takes a lot of love and dedication from donors to support daily operations. As a 501(c)(3), your donations are tax deductible.
- 11,100+ lives saved since 2019
- 1,906 adoptions in 2024
- 2,180 foster placements in 2024
ARF! The Animal Resource Facility
Making Our Best Hometown Even Better
For our community, neighbors and pets
We’re launching a capital campaign to build the future of animal welfare in Delaware County! ARF (Animal Resource Facility) will be a 22,000 sq. ft. hub for adoption, veterinary care, training, boarding, and grooming—uniting the Humane Society of Delaware County with private businesses to support pets and their families.
We have just a few months to raise $1.8 million, and we need your help! Join us in making this vision a reality. Click below to learn more and get involved!

Meet Tracey and Brian—foster parents with hearts as big as their pack! Since January 2022, they’ve opened their home to 45 dogs in need, lovingly serving as a bridge from uncertainty to forever.
Their very first foster, Olive, quickly became a “foster fail” … and so did three more! 🐶💞 But even with a full house, they continue to welcome new dogs with open arms, knowing that each one deserves a chance to be loved.
The Humane Society of Delaware County relies on incredible foster families like theirs to save more lives—and with a new Animal Resource Facility (ARF), we’ll have even more space and support for animals in need.
✨ Help us build that bridge to more happy endings. Find out more about ARF and donate at .
