Make a difference and Sponsor a Kennel today!
Sponsoring a kennel is a great opportunity for families, community groups, organizations, and companies to make sure our shelter pets have the best care during their stay at the shelter. Whether you are looking to advertise your business, memorialize a loved one, honor a pet, or are just searching for the perfect gift, sponsoring a kennel is a wonderful opportunity to help other pets find their own loving, forever homes!
When you sponsor a kennel, you provide financial support for CHS shelter pets. Your gift goes toward the daily care, medical care, and comfort of our shelter pets.
As a Kennel Sponsor you will receive:
- A personalized plaque placed on a kennel for an entire year.
- Your sponsorship acknowledged annually in our newsletter.
- Recognition on our website.
- Chesapeake Humane Society is a Section 501(c)(3) charitable organization so your donation may be tax-deductible!
