How to Donate to HSOTC

The Humane Society of Tuolumne County is a private, non-profit 501(c)(3) no-kill, limited intake animal shelter.  Any donation made is tax-deductible as permissible by law.

We depend exclusively on the generosity of our community and fellow animal lovers as we receive no government funding nor are we affiliated with the United States Humane Society (HSUS).

On behalf of our four-legged friends whose wishes are very simple, we say thank you!
