About Help Me Create a Humane San Diego
The Help Me Create a Humane San Diego fundraising program allows anyone to raise money for San Diego Humane Society on behalf of homeless pets.
You can participate in any way you want: from celebrating birthdays and weddings by asking for donations instead of gifts, to holding a bake sale to benefit San Diego Humane Society, Help Me Create a Humane San Diego makes it easy to set up a fundraising campaign, ask your friends and family to donate, and track your progress.
When you start a Help Me Create a Humane San Diego campaign, you'll get your own fundraising page. Use it to tell supporters why you're raising money to help animals. You can tell a story about why you care about animal welfare, write about your event or party, and even upload photos or videos to share your passion!

We provide vital services to animals and people by sheltering and adopting animals, providing positive reinforcement training classes, investigating animal cruelty and neglect, presenting education programs for youth and adults, and much more.
We are a private, nonprofit organization that is not affiliated with any other humane society or SPCA. San Diego Humane Society receives no government funding and is supported solely by contributions, grants, bequests, investments, proceeds from our retail store, and small fees for services.
