What We Do

The Nebraska Humane Society (NHS) protects, saves and enriches the lives of animals in the communities we serve. At NHS, we love dogs, cats, horses and all animals. A lot. We shelter them when they are homeless and lavish them with kindness and dignity until they find their forever homes or are reunited with their families. YOU are the help that becomes their hope; whether you volunteer, take a training class, send your children to camp, adopt or donate! Each year, more than 18,000 animals come through our doors. Some only need a place to stay, while others need lifesaving medical care. Each one is treated with compassion and dignity as we work to find them their forever home. This is only possible through the generosity of our community - people like you!
