Why we need your help
The Central Missouri Humane Society is a 501(c)3 private nonprofit organization. We are not affiliated with the Humane Society of the United States or ASPCA.
CMHS is not a municipal shelter- we are not run by the City of Columbia. We work alongside Columbia’s Animal Control and share our space with them. This contract only covers around 15% of our annual budget. CMHS would not exist without the support of our donors.
How your donation helps
The generosity of our donors provides us with the means to uphold our mission: to promote the well-being of companion animals- pets that enrich the lives of the people who love them.
- Provides food, water, shelter, and comfort to our animals
- Provides veterinary supplies
- Allows us to offer low-cost spay/neuter services to the public
- Allows us to buy necessary supplies to keep our shelter running
- Enables us to temporarily provide pet food and other resources to pet owners going through financial hardship.
