The Perfect Gift for the Animal Lover in Your Life

Looking for a meaningful gift that shows you care? An honorary gift to HSSW is a thoughtful way to celebrate the animal lover in your life. Your gift does more than bring a smile—it provides shelter, medical care, and second chances for pets in need.

An honorary gift ensures animals at HSSW find loving homes and supports the lifesaving programs that make it all possible. It's a special way to honor someone while making a difference for animals in our community.

Want to create a lasting tribute? Consider a personalized brick or paver—a timeless way to celebrate your loved one and support the animals.

Memorial Gifts

Memorial gifts are a meaningful way to celebrate the life of someone you’ve lost. By making a donation in their memory, you’re helping animals in need while paying tribute to their legacy.

If you’d like to establish memorial donations, friends and family can give online at at hssw.org/dedication or via check payable to:

Humane Society for Southwest Washington
1100 NE 192nd Ave
Vancouver, WA 98684

If you would like to notify the family of these donations, our team is happy to assist. To ensure notification, please email us at [email protected] and include the name of the individual who has passed and their family's contact information.

Bricks and Pavers

The walk leading up to our front door is lined with love and memories—dedications to animal lovers and beloved pets. Each brick or paver represents a special story, and every day, adopted pets cross them on their way to new, happy homes.

Creating a personalized brick or paver is a timeless way to honor someone special while supporting our lifesaving work. Proceeds from your dedication go directly toward helping animals find safety, care, and love.

With a variety of engraving options, you can craft a message that perfectly reflects your tribute.
