History
The Elk County Humane Society was formed in order to help the homeless animals of Elk County, Pennsylvania by a group of animal lovers. Our 503(c)(3) tax exemption status was applied for and granted in 2001. We operated, with the help of foster homes, until 2007 when the shelter was completed. Donations from foundations, corporations, organizations and individuals enabled us to build the Elk County Humane Society with much of the work being donated also. The shelter has 24 dog kennels and 44 cat pens, a puppy room and a medical room. We continue to seek to improve the lives of homeless animals in any way possible and hope to do so for many, many years to come.
