A heartfelt THANK YOU to our 2025 GivingTueSPAY matching funds donors! With your support, we are saving lives.
All donations during this campaign benefit our My Last Litter and Fresh Start programs, both designed to help stop the cycle of unwanted litters and offspring. Spaying and neutering our pets is key to reducing animal overpopulation and ending animal suffering!

The Yakima Humane Society is a 118-year-old animal shelter dedicated to serving animals in the Yakima, WA area. We bring in several animals each day with the mission of providing them with vet care, including spaying and neutering, microchipping and finding them with a forever home.
One of the biggest challenges we face is finding the space to care for the overwhelming number of pets that come our way. These animals come to us via owner surrenders, strays, and animal control units. We are doing our best to promote spay and neuter services, but in the meantime, we have prioritized the comfort and quality of life for our shelter animals.
We rescue, reunite, rehabilitate, and re-home 4,000 to 5,000 animals every year. We rely on donations from individuals, businesses, and foundations to save lives. There are several ways to contribute to our lifesaving efforts.
Some of the most important humane society donations come in the form of volunteers. Volunteering with the Yakima Humane Society is a great way to help animals and your community. There's always something to do, and you will witness firsthand the difference you're making in the lives of animals. Pet Fostering is also a fun way to volunteer and support YHS. We would love your involvement!
