Compassion and respect for all, each other and animals.
Commitment to lead the way in animal welfare.
Serving the community with optimism and integrity.

We believe collaboration and connection create the greatest impact.
For more than a century, the Humane Society of Tampa Bay has been a lifeline for animals, and for the people who love them.
The Humane Society of Tampa Bay, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, provides shelter for homeless & at risk animals, adoptions, hospital, and TNVR services for the general public; operates independently from the Humane World for Animals (formally Humane Society of the United States). And we, along with our animals, would love to have you as a partner on this journey.
Stand with us and other like-minded individuals, animal welfare organizations, foundations, and companies as we work to end animal homelessness in Tampa Bay. By lending your voice, mobilizing supporters and customers, and helping to raise critical funds, you can change the lives of pets and people.

- Save More Lives
