Columbia County Humane Society (CCHS) is a private, non-profit organization that depends primarily on donated funds. CCHS is independent. It is neither controlled nor governed by any local, state or national animal welfare organization.
The Columbia County Humane Society was incorporated in 1925 in response to growing community need to care for unwanted and abandoned animals. It was recognized as a charitable tax-exempt corporation in 1975. In 1978, the first shelter was constructed. Twenty years later, a new shelter was built at Highway 16 West and Industrial Road.
Each year, the Humane Society provides care and shelter to approximately 1200 animals. A number of these animals are strays brought in by local officials or animals abandoned at the shelter by their owners.
Over the years, we have saved the lives of countless animals through immediate care and treatment, and ultimately adoption. Because of the Society, otherwise unwanted animals have found happy, loving homes. The new shelter opened in 1998 to accommodate the increasing number of animals needing care and to provide increased services to the community, allowing the Society to continue its humanitarian work well into the 21st century.
