Hihs is a non-profit animal welfare organization that aims to prevent cruelty to animals, eliminate pet overpopulation, and strengthen the bond between humans and animals. Established in 1965, Hawaii Island Humane Society (HIHS) offers lifesaving programs and community outreach services on Hawaii Island. With shelters in Keaau and a new Animal Community Center in Kona, HIHS provides a safe and caring environment for animals in need.

HIHS offers a range of services to the community, including adoption for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, and exotics. They also provide opportunities for off-island adoptions. Additionally, they offer services such as field trips for shelter dogs, foster volunteer services, lost and found assistance, spay and neuter programs, community vet care, pet rehoming, and a community pet pantry.

Donations are essential to support their mission, and HIHS offers various donation options, including online donations, sponsoring a pet, donating through their wish list, or donating your birthday. They also have retail shops and an online store where you can purchase items, with the proceeds going towards their programs. If you're looking to expand your family with a furry friend, support a worthwhile cause, or find helpful resources for your pets, Hawaii Island Humane Society is here to make a positive impact in the lives of animals on Hawaii Island.
