118 Years of Care

For over 118 years, the Washington Area Humane Society has been committed to Washington County’s most vulnerable animals. Together, because of pet lovers like you, we have had the opportunity to care for thousands of abandoned and abused animals, placing them in safe and loving homes. By making a gift to the WAHS through your will, trust, or other legacy plan, you can help us continue to provide shelter, safety, and care to even more animals in the years to come.
