How Can You Help?
Make a donation:
The LVVHS is constantly in need
of funds. The society is wholly supported by tax-deductible,
voluntary contributions from the public. The society receives
no funding from local, state or federal governments. All
money received is used solely for the animals. All animals
rescued receive veterinarian care, disease testing, shots,
and are spayed and neutered. Donations can be sent to:
Las
Vegas Valley Humane Society
PMB438
2250 East Tropicana Road Ste. 19
Las Vegas, NV 89119
We also now accept donations through PayPal.

Volunteer your time and services:
The LVVHS needs volunteers to rescue animals and work the
adoption center. All interested volunteers are trained for
whatever job they care to help with. Volunteers are also
needed to help with our major annual fund raiser: Wag-a-Tail
Walk-a-Thon
If you would like to fill out an application to
be a volunteer, please click
here for the Volunteer Form.
Foster an animal until adoption:
The
LVVHS has sometimes had as many as 75 - 100 animals in foster
homes and being boarded at veterinary clinics. The ideal
is to have all animals in foster homes receiving individual
attention to their needs. This saves boarding expenses and
allows for easier adjustment when the animals are eventually
placed. Length of time necessary to house the animal(s) and
amount of care will vary with each animal(s). All expenses
incurred in the animal's care are paid by the LVVHS. If
you are interested in fostering an animal, click
here for the “Foster Form” questionnaire.
Become involved in our TTVAR program:
TTVAR stands for "Trap, Test, Vaccinate, Alter and
Return to caretaker". This very important program is
our answer to the ever growing "feral cat problem" in
Las Vegas. Check out our page on
the feral cat issue. Our volunteers humanely trap cats,
transport them to veterinarians who test them for disease,
vaccinate them and either spay or neuter them, and then when
they are recovered from the anesthetic return them to the
area they came from with a caretaker who gives food and water
on a regular basis. Kittens born to feral cats when rescued
at an early age can often be socialized and adopted.
Remember the LVVHS in your will or charitable trust:
