WHY: |
|
The Humane Society of Greater Miami/Adopt-A-Pet is a non-profit
501(c)3 organization that receives no funding from any other
national animal welfare group. We depend solely on your financial
support to continue to guarantee every pet in our care a second
chance - no matter how long it takes! The Society operates
two adoption
centers and two low-cost spay/neuter
clinics to serve the pets and people of Miami-Dade
County. Help us continue to make a difference in the lives
of homeless pets by joining us at the Walk - our biggest fundraiser
of the year!
