Want to multiply your impact? Consider a Matching Gift.

Matching campaigns inspire donors to give because they know their contribution can go even further. Your company can help unlock additional community support by matching donations during special fundraising campaigns.

$1 in matching support can inspire $2 in donor support. Want to learn more about sponsorship opportunities? Contact give@guelphhumane.ca.

Host a Fundraiser

Bring your team, customers, or community together around a cause that matters.

From workplace challenges and donation drives to garage sales, special events, and creative ideas of your own, there are countless ways to fundraise for GHS.

You don’t need fundraising experience, just an idea and a desire to help. Our Events Team can provide resources, guidance, and support to help bring your special event to life.

All DIY fundraising events must comply with applicable laws, municipal bylaws, and regulations.

Make a Corporate Gift

A corporate gift is a simple and impactful way to invest in animals and the community your business calls home.

Whether you’re making an annual contribution, celebrating a milestone, or responding to a community need, your support helps provide vulnerable animals with the care and second chances they deserve.

Adopt an Animal Space

Give animals a safe, comfortable place to call home while they wait for their forever families.

Through our Happy Tails Begin Here – Kennel Adoption Program, your organization can adopt a kennel or cage in our facility for a one-year term. Your support helps provide animals with safe housing, enrichment, food, treats, and compassionate care.

We’ll recognize your organization with a customized plaque displayed on your adopted space.
