Every day, the Athens Area Humane Society shelter takes in and provides care for the abandoned, unwanted, and forgotten animals of our community while our Spay/Neuter Center provides affordable lifesaving surgeries to our communities' animals.

You can help us in our work and show that you haven't forgotten the animals who need your help. Please donate now.

Planned Giving - Providing for Animals in your Will

Did you know that 70% of Americans pass away without leaving a will? And yet giving through your will, once loved ones have been taken care of, is one of the easiest ways to give a gift to your favorite charitable organizations. The wording is simple and you can even designate which specific programs you would like your gift to support.

"I give, devise and bequeath, to the Athens Area Humane Society, a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation, [% of assets or specific dollar amount] for the benefit of [specific program or general operating support]."

In addition, naming the Shelter as a beneficiary of a 401(k) plan, an IRA, a pension plan or an insurance policy is just as easy, and designating a small percentage of your assets can help ensure that the Shelter will always be here for the animals of our community.

If you would like help with this process, please contact us and we will be happy to help in any way we can.
