Ways to Give

People like YOU support the Kentucky Humane Society (KHS). Period. As a private, non-profit organization, KHS receives no city, state or federal funding from any entity, nor are we funded by any national humane organization. 

KHS relies solely on donations from private individuals, organizations and corporations right here in our area to continue our critical mission.

Here’s how you can give:

• Make a secure gift online. It's safe, easy and secure.
• Make a gift via phone–call (502) 515-3144.
• Make a gift by mail. Send your check to Kentucky Humane Society, 241 Steedly Drive, Louisville, KY 40214.
• Make a gift in honor or memory of a loved one. Gifts of $25 or more are recognized in several ways.
• Make a 5-year commitment and become a member of our 1884 Society. 
• Make KHS a beneficiary of your Will or Life Insurance Policy. 
• Donate your vehicle to KHS.
• Donate a much needed item to KHS
• Host a fundraiser for KHS
• Apply for a KHS Visa Platinum® Rewards Card and help needy animals while making everyday purchases!
• Vote for KHS in the Animal Rescue Site's Shelter+Challenge.

We accept cash, checks, automatic debit or credit cards (VISA, MasterCard, American Express, Discovery) and gifts of mutual funds, securities and publicly-traded stock, as well as in-kind donations of useful items.

Putting your dollars to good use!
For the third consecutive year, KHS was awarded the highest overall rating by Charity Navigator, the nation’s leading charity evaluator. KHS is one of only nine state charities and the only animal welfare organization in Kentucky and Indiana to receive the four-star rating. We received this honor because more than 80 cents of every dollar generated goes directly to pet programs and services.
