HOW TO HELP

Item donations directly help people and pets in need across Oahu. There are a few items that we are currently in particular need of, which can be purchased through Amazon Smile and delivered directly to our Moiliili campus!

Donate via Hawaiian Humane's Amazon Smile Wish List

As the Hawaiian Humane Society remains open with essential services, we continue to help people and pets through various functions like adoptions, foster care, admissions, our Pet Food Bank and more. Your donation of food, treats or needed items goes directly to animals utilizing these programs on campus or off-site. Currently, we are especially in need of harnesses, reusable tote bags (used for providing supplies to volunteers) and leashes, in addition to other items. All donations help animals in our care or go back to the community to support local pets.

You can send any Amazon Smile Wish List items directly to our campus at:

Hawaiian Humane Society - Donations

Mahalo for your kokua!

HAPPY TAILS

 
 

A few weeks ago, Lisa Ann and her family adopted Kia’i, a 4-month-old puppy. After living in his new home for a week, Kia’i quickly formed a special bond with his big sister. The two love spending time together, even if that time is spent napping! Mahalo to Lisa Ann and her family for welcoming Kia’i into their home and giving him so much love (and snuggles)!

As we work toward re-opening in a manner that's safest for our animals, volunteers and staff, adoptions continue to be by appointment only with scheduling available by email request to adoptionsappointment@hawaiianhumane.org. If you're interested in learning more about adopting, send an email and our team will reach out to coordinate next steps. ⁣⁣

Do you have a Hawaiian Humane Happy Tail of your own that you'd like to share? Send us your story and a photo (or two) to news@hawaiianhumane.org for a chance to be featured in an upcoming e-newsletter or on our social media!
