What We Do
- The Humane Animal Welfare Society (HAWS) is an open admission, no-kill shelter dedicated to strengthening the relationship between animals and humans through adoptions and education. HAWS leads the way in animal welfare and community education – keeping pets in their forever homes, ending euthanasia and teaching all ages the values of kindness, compassion and empathy.
- HAWS also hosts a Pet Pantry, open year-round, which distributes pet food and supplies to those who can’t otherwise afford it. To date, it has given out 33,000 pounds of food. The organization also runs its Safe Keep program, which provides temporary housing for pets at no charge, when owners have unexpected emergencies.
- With facilities in both Waukesha and Delafield, HAWS provides humane education for people of all ages, including clubs, classes, field trips and more.
Where Your Money Goes
- HAWS relies on donor support for all aspects of its work. Donations are used to support care of the animal residents, medical treatment and spaying/neutering for shelter and community pets, animal rescue, fostering and adoption. Money is also used for training and enrichment programs for the resident animals, as well as humane education for people of all ages.
