Humane Society of South Mississippi Charity Profile
The mission of the Humane Society of South Mississippi is advocate for the prevention of suffering of South Mississippi animals, provide the highest quality services and compassion to the animals entrusted to our care, reduce companion animal overpopulation and increase the save-rate of animals in our community, and promote the bond between animals and humans.
The Humane Society of South Mississippi was overwhelmed by the enormous impact of Hurricane Katrina, and our shelter experienced complete devastation. Four feet of water flooded our old facility, and all equipment, supplies, and records were lost. Katrina’s impact was simply far more destructive than anyone anticipated, and our future looked grim.
Thanks to the support of countless organizations and volunteers, our Humane Society been able to not only recover from Hurricane Katrina, but thrive in our community in a way never before possible. Generous financial support from across the country made it possible for us to complete the construction of our new 41,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility.
The community response to this building has been immense. The Humane Society is now recognized as a community beacon of opportunity thanks to our positive, energetic partnership with the pets and people of South Mississippi. Community interest and involvement has soared, demonstrating the effect that a new building in a prime location can make.
