We place many kinds of animals--horses, cows, goats, ducks and rabbits . . . even hamsters! And we see to it that any wildlife that comes into the shelter goes to certified rehabilitators for care.

The shelter is supported by donations from caring individuals, membership dues, and gifts from several community organizations. We also receive yearly contributions from the county governments of Gloucester and Middlesex. We act as the animal pound facility for Mathews County and receive a fee for every animal brought to the shelter either by a Mathews citizen or the Animal Control Officers. We also sponsor several fund raising events each year.

Much of our facility was built and is maintained by dedicated volunteers who donate their time and energy to this rewarding task.

The Gloucester-Mathews Humane Society has a small, full time staff. However, many important tasks are accomplished by caring volunteers and made possible by generous donations.

Without the funds generated by these various sources and the continuing support of the community, we would be unable to provide a sanctuary for the unwanted animals in our area, and would be forced to curtail many of our programs.

We would love to have you join our growing family--whether through adoption of a loving companion or donation of time or money.
