The Baltimore Humane Society, founded in 1927 by Mrs. Elsie Seeger Barton, is an independent, non-profit, no-kill animal shelter, which offers low-cost veterinary care to the public, and a pet cemetery with grief support services. We receive no operational funding from the local or federal governments, or any national animal welfare organizations.   The Humane Society is dependent on donations from individuals, corporations, and foundations, and income from fundraising events to support animal care operations.For more information about BHS, and how you can contribute, volunteer, adopt, or foster, please visit www.bmorehumane.org.


MISSION STATEMENT:
Provide a temporary home, a safe refuge, and care for stray, unwanted and homeless animals. Work aggressively to place each animal that comes to our shelter in a loving, permanent home. Strive to end the euthanasia of healthy, adoptable animals by promoting and offering affordable spaying and neutering to control the population of unwanted animals in our area and addressing the issues that cause people to give up animals. Advance the cause of the humane treatment of animals and increase awareness of animal issues through public education. Ensure a peaceful final resting place for beloved companion animals through the operation of a beautiful and well-maintained cemetery for companion animals.
