How to Donate
Be a Best Friend: Recurring Donations
Animals are often referred to as our best friends, and now you can reciprocate. One of the ways that you can help support HSoMC is by becoming an HSoMC “Best Friend.” Best Friends are a special group of HSoMC donors who give recurring monthly donations. It doesn’t need to be a lot, but by committing to give the same amount for an extended duration of time, YOU help HSoMC by giving us a predictable revenue, which enables us to budget responsibly so that we can ensure our animals get the care they need.
Our donation levels are as follows:
