Help Animals in Need
Join us in ending pet overpopulation, cruelty, and neglect to animals, in addition to promoting respect and kindness to all living creatures.
Help People Help Animals
We are dedicated to creating a humane environment for animals and humans.

What We Offer

Our goal is to connect the people who want to help our cause to end animal suffering with the animals that are in need.

We provide a full array of services to help the people and animals in our community.
Help Us Make a Difference For Animals

The COVID-19 pandemic has put a financial burden on many families, and the Peoria Humane Society knows that tough times for people mean tough times for animals.
