The Animals Need Your Help Now More Than Ever, says Ottawa Humane Society

March 26, 2020 — Despite unprecedented challenges, the Ottawa Humane Society (OHS) is committed to continuing its critical services for animals in need.

The OHS has issued an urgent appeal to the community for donations to support the critical services it is offering throughout this public health crisis.

“We know that this crisis has placed financial strain on many families and businesses in our community, and it is placing strain on us,” said OHS President & CEO, Bruce Roney. “We continue to rely on donations from the community to fund the essential services such as shelter, life-saving surgery and medication that we’re providing for the hundreds of animals in our care.”

The OHS is currently caring for around 250 animals, with more coming into its care each day. While some nonessential staff have been asked to work remotely to follow the recommendations of health officials, essential staff continue to work hard onsite ensuring the animals are still able to receive the best quality of care possible.

Those who are able to support the care of Ottawa’s animals are encouraged to make a donation at www.ottawahumane.ca/HelpTheAnimals.
