Interactive Paws In The Park Experience

Toronto Humane Society was inspired in November 1886 by an anonymous $2 donation to a local newspaper that publish a letter asking"Why don't we have a society for the prevention of animal cruelty?". That generousity continued and has grown throughout the years to the amazing ogranization we are now!

It is the mission of Toronto Humane Society to promote the humane care and protection of all animals and to prevent cruelty and suffering. We follow no kill principles and aspire to be a best-in-class animal shelter in the world. Working together in partnership with the community to find creative solutions and improve outcomes for all animals. We want to change the world for the better.

Why don't you join us in making a difference?

What Our Fundraising Goal Really Means

When we talk about fundraising “goals”, what we are really talking about is our work. Our mission. We are talking about animals who need your help.

Paws in the Park has always provided a significant portion of the Toronto Humane Society's annual operating costs and has helped to keep our doors open for any and all animals in need. This year, things are a little different. Mass closures and social distancing have put us in a tight spot. So, when you join us, you are helping us improve the lives of animals for another day.
