The Humane Society of the United States is the nation's largest animal protection organization, backed by 11 million Americans. We work to reduce suffering and improve the lives of all animals by advocating for better laws; investigating animal cruelty; encouraging corporations to adopt animal-friendly policies; conducting disaster relief and animal rescue.

Pet Helpers 
Pet Helpers was founded in 1976 by Carol Linville after she read that 8,000 pets were being euthanized each year at local shelters. It began as a weekly "adopt a pet" column. Thirty years later, that column has grown into Pet Helpers Rescue and Adoption Shelter, one of the foremost pet rescue organizations in South Carolina.
