Give Now

Make a Gift Today

Every day, animals in our community face challenges — from homelessness to urgent medical needs. Your loving gift can be the turning point in their lives.

With your support, the OHS provides shelter, medical care and the chance for a new beginning to thousands of animals yearly. Whether it's a kitten needing healthy food or a dog requiring surgery, your kindness makes these stories of hope possible.

Join us in making a difference. Your compassion today brings a brighter tomorrow for animals in need.

Make Your Love Last All Year Round

Become a Monthly Donor

Every day, animals come into our shelter in need of food, medical care and love. As a PAW monthly donor, you’ll be there for every one of them — every day. Your ongoing kindness means we can respond immediately, plan ahead, and make every dollar go further to help Ottawa’s most vulnerable animals.

Why Give Monthly?

  • 🐾 It saves lives — all year. Your monthly gift ensures animals like Ladybug, who needed months of care before finding her forever home, get the second chance they deserve.
  • 💚 It’s budget-friendly. You choose an amount that works for you — and your loving gift adds up to make a big difference.
  • 📅 It’s reliable. Your monthly support helps us plan ahead and commit to long-term care, adoption, and outreach programs.
  • 📉 It reduces admin costs. More of your gift goes directly to animals — and you’ll get a single tax receipt at year-end.

Need to update your information or credit card? Please contact our development attendant at donations@ottawahumane.ca or 613-725-3166 ext. 299.

For all other PAW monthly donor inquiries please contact our monthly giving coordinator, at paw@ottawahumane.ca or 613-725-3166 ext. 254.

Celebrate Love and Compassion

Make a Tribute Gift

Mark a special moment, honour a loved one, or remember a cherished pet — and help vulnerable animals find healing and hope.

When you make a gift in tribute, you show your love and kindness in two ways that saves lives. Every gift supports animals who need urgent care, a warm bed, giving a much-needed second chance at happiness.

How Your Tribute Gift Helps Animals

  • 🐾 In Celebration: Honour birthdays, weddings, anniversaries — or simply celebrate the love you share.
  • 🐾 In Honour: Recognize someone special with a gift that creates real change for animals.
  • 🐾 In Memory: Keep the spirit of a beloved person or pet alive by giving animals a future filled with hope.

We will send a meaningful eCard to your honouree or their family, letting them know about your thoughtful gift.
