HUMANE SOCIETY OF WICKENBURG
Because they matter
Programs and results
What we aim to solve
The Humane Society of Wickenburg (HSW) is seeking financial support for programs in working to address the animal welfare issues in Wickenburg and surrounding rural areas. There is an increasing number of homeless and unwanted animals in the growing community in need of a forever home. HSW provides shelter, food, and medical needs for all animals taken into their care until they are adopted. HSW takes pet overpopulation control measures by sterilizing all animals cared for at the shelter and by offering low cost public spay and neuter clinics. There is also a growing need for pet food for animals belonging to poor and/or elderly citizens in the community.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Responsible Dog Ownership Day
This is an annual event that we host to ensure we provide the Wickenburg community & surrounding small towns the tools necessary to be responsible dog owners. We provide micro chipping, Rabies vaccinations, nail trimming, Maricopa County Dog Licensing, and name tags.
Spay & Neuter Assistance
To provide financial assistance to people who cannot afford the full cost to spay or neuter their cats and dogs.
Trap/Neuter/Return (TNR) for Feral Cats
Spay & neuter unowned and feral (wild) cats in our area. Each cat is also given a rabies vaccination. Our program follows the guidelines established by Allied Cat Allies. Funds are raised to cover the expense of TNR ($45 per cat when taken to a low cost spay/neuter clinic, up to $100 per cat when surgery performed by local veterinarians). Funds are also used to assist volunteer caregivers with providing food to feral cat colonies.
Microchip Clinics
Every year we have approximately 3 microchip clinics. Each event is made possibly by our partnership with our three local vets. Each vet volunteers their time for one microchip clinic. At each clinic we microchip on average 20 - 30 animals. Each clinic is a low-cost microchip clinic and we charge $10.00 per microchip.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
The Humane Society of Wickenburg's (HSW) goal is to provide for the needs of homeless and orphaned pets in the community and surrounding rural areas and place them in forever homes.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
We have increased our marketing and social media to share information on pets here in the shelter looking for their furever home.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
The Humane Society of Wickenburg operates a brick and mortar animal shelter situated in Wickenburg, Arizona that houses dogs and cats.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
The Humane Society of Wickenburg (HSW) has experienced a 15 percent increase in animal intakes and will continue to serve the animals of the community. As the community animal population grows, it is likely more shelter space will be needed in the coming years.
