About us

Founded in 1885, the Jacksonville Humane Society is a local, independent non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. JHS provides care, comfort and compassion to animals in need while engaging hearts, hands and minds of our community to bring about an end to the killing of abandoned and orphaned shelter animals. JHS is proud to partner with local agencies to keep Jacksonville a no kill city. In 2022, JHS provided almost 9,000 homeless pets with shelter and medical care as they waited to find loving homes. The Jacksonville Humane Society's Adoption, Education and Pet Help Center is open 7 days a week for adoption. We also offer help for pet owners in need, children's education camps, military veteran training, business partnerships, volunteer opportunities and more!

Plus, all donations in June are matched by a generous donor up to $30,000! 🤩 Name your kitten now by donating at buff.ly/3OU5KKb. After you've donated, send us a message and we'll send you the link to name your kitten! We cannot wait to see what creative (and family-friendly, please 😅) names you all come up with.
