Special Programs

The DC Cat Count is an innovative study being administered by the Humane Rescue Alliance. The knowledge gleaned from this study will help us develop effective and humane outdoor cat population management programs nationwide. HRA is the financial administrator for the DC Cat Count. Your contribution will be used exclusively to support the DC Cat Count program.

Donate today to support the DC Cat Count.

Veterinary Support

There are several ways to help ensure that all animals get the care they need, whatever their ownership status or owners’ financial means.

Ladybell's Fund for Emergency Medical Care enables us to provide special, life-saving care for shelter animals with extraordinary needs. In 2020, following a significantly impactful case involving Ladybell and her remarkable resilience and recovery, we decided to rename the fund in her honor. 

Donate today to the Ladybell Fund.

The Ann Brody Cove Fund provides support to families whose means won’t cover the care their animals need from the HRA medical center; it keeps animals healthy and in loving homes.

Donate today to the Ann Brody Cove Fund.

Stop Cruelty

HRA Humane Law Officers are the only professionals in DC who pursue cases against people who harm animals. They investigate thousands of cases each year to make our community safe for animals.

The Fund to Combat Cruelty in memory of Sophie Abrahams and Robby Watts supports all aspects of the Humane Law Enforcement team’s work, from medical care and equipment to holding animals that are living evidence in cases against abusers.

Donate today to the Fund to Combat Cruelty.
