Each year HAWS offers support and sanctuary to more than 10,000 pets. The HAWS Schallock Center for Animals has an enriching, peaceful environment to provide hospice care, exercise and respite to pets in need.

The expansions of these opportunities to the Schallock Center will create strong bonds between pets and their people for generations to come.

Each year HAWS engages more than 12,000 future leaders through humane, character- driven programming. Expanding on existing efforts to offer year-round STEAM opportunities to schools, particularly those with greater need, Schallock Center encourages discovery in nature and foster compassion for animals.

We also developed new program to reach a broader age range.
