First, let us
tell you a little about our organization. . .
As the oldest
humane organization in Peoria, Illinois, the Peoria
Humane Society offers beneficial programs to the people
and animals of the community. Established more than fifty
years ago, this volunteer organization has always worked
to improve the plight of animals in the Peoria community. Our membership supports a number of different programs
for the animals and people in Peoria County. Although the
Peoria Humane Society does not operate an animal shelter,
the organization supports the Peoria Animal Welfare
Shelter financially and philosophically. In fact, the
Humane Society is a full partner with the City of Peoria
and Peoria County in the ownership of the current shelter
facility. However, the City of Peoria operates the
shelter and its animal and rabies control programs.
This
cooperative effort between animal control and a private
humane organization is unique to Peoria and offers many
benefits to the people and animals of this community.
