Dear Friend,
We at Palo Alto Humane are enthusiastic about continuing our mission of inspiring our community to connect humanely with animals. With the arrival of spring, we’re reminded of the renewal of hope and the chance to create meaningful change for those in need, both humans and animals alike.
In this edition of our newsletter, we are thrilled to present stories of resilience, community engagement, and the commitment of our team and supporters. As we move into the new season, we invite you to take the opportunity to support our spring fundraiser and join us for upcoming community events that emphasize compassion towards animals in our community.

Support Palo Alto Humane in ensuring every animal in our community receives the care they deserve. With your help, we've responded to the community's critical needs, spaying and neutering over 1200 animals and assisting 350 families through our Vet Help program in 2023 alone. Your donation will directly impact lives, providing crucial medical care and support to animals in need.
Help us reach our goal of $150,000 to continue our vital work in the community. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference. Thank you for your generosity and compassion.

Happy Tails!
Mango, who was suffering from entropion—an abnormal inward rolling of the eyelids causing painful friction with the eye’s surface—needed immediate treatment, and her family could not afford the necessary surgery. Utilizing PAH’s Vet Help program in partnership with The Dancing Cat, Mango underwent successful treatment and is now thriving post-surgery.

PAH’s Pals
During a recent PAH's Pals event held at Kipp Esperanza High School in East Palo Alto, Rory, a dedicated volunteer dog, provided invaluable company and emotional support to the teens during their lunch break. With Rory’s gentle presence, the students found furry companionship, creating a welcoming environment where they could unwind and connect with each other amidst the hustle and bustle of school life!
