Help Bonnie raise money

For participating in Barkapalooza

My Story…

We've been participating in Barkapalooza since moving to the area, and it is now becoming a family tradition with our two kiddos. We adopted our wonderful Peppa (aka Peppapotamus the North American house hippo) from WSHS in April 2022, and we are very thankful to have her. She's brought us so much love and joy, and we are grateful that WSHS made it possible. 

Barkapalooza is one of the shelter's biggest fundraisers, and the proceeds help provide food, shelter, training and veterinary care for dogs and cats while they find their forever homes. Every donation helps!


Description

The West Suburban Humane Society (WSHS) is a private, volunteer-based, animal welfare organization that was founded in 1972 and is 100% funded by individuals, our business partners and private grants. Since our inception we have found forever homes for more than 31,000 animals, and strive to be a community resource for all pet owners.  
We want to save as many lives as we can but we need your help!  Our adoption fee does not cover the testing, de-worming, vaccinations, spay/neutering and microchipping WSHS provides these pets, not to mention food, litter, pee pads and other supplies our animals need!
  • Just $25 will microchip 5 animals
  • $50 will feed all the animals in our shelter one meal
  • $100 will cover the cost to spay or neuter one animal
  • $250 will contribute to the medical care for one of our animals needing extra care
  • $500 will cover the cost of one animal in our shelter
