01What it does

What Door County Humane Society Inc does

Mission

The door county humane society is committed to providing a safe haven for lost and homeless pets, and the placement of these pets in a safe, loving and caring environment. We encourage responsible pet ownership for all companion animals through education, by example, and the the promotion of spay/neuter as the only solution to the pet overpopulation problem. Door county humane society will follow wisconsin state statutes as they apply to animal welfare.

As stated on its FY2017 Form 990.

Program

In combination with the assistance of local veterinarians, door county humane society provides shelter and medical care for lost, orphaned and surrendered animals. Each year we care for hundreds of animals, nurturing them and diligently trying to find each one a loving home. In addition, we do many community events and visit local schools to encourage responsible pet ownership through education and training. We also provide crematorium services.

The first program described on its most recent Form 990, which lists programs largest first by expense.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $7k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
