Our mission is to help create and support adoption-guarantee communities by offering education, consulting, leadership, and volunteer support.

Though officially incorporated in 2009, the Peninsula Humane Foundation has been actively supporting animal care organizations for many years. Our projects range from providing volunteer teams to leading fundraising efforts that raise tens of thousands of dollars. Click here to read about our most recent projects!


The Peninsula Humane Foundation was most recently invited by the Humane Society of the United States to speak at the largest gathering of animal care professionals, the 2010 Animal Care Expo. Over 80 shelters from across the country attended the Peninsula Humane Foundation's workshop. Here is what a few had to say:

"Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and these materials with us. Your generosity amazes me - by sharing this with all of us, you are helping many, many animals. I thank you also for your offer of support - this amazes me more! I will stay in touch as we try to effect change in our community!"
-Laura Scott, Country K-9 Rescue, Lebanon, TN
"Your seminar was excellent and I appreciate all the incredible information you have provided. I feel as though we now have the tools to put together an amazing event – maybe as soon as next year!"
- Debbie Trask, Coppell Humane Society, Coppell, TX

"I can't begin to describe my delight when I discovered your cookbook to an impressive dog walk with a budget and plans for success! Soon I’ll pull together a planning group and we’ll start planning our first “professional” dog walk and festival. We need a flagship fundraiser and now we’ve got a plan!"
- Valerie Rachal, RN, PhD, South Pines Animal Shelter, Hattiesburg, MS
