At Pope Memorial Humane Society-Cocheco Valley, every wagging tail, every gentle purr, and every second chance begins with compassion. Our monthly donors are just that. Compassionate individuals who believe in our mission and provide steady support for the animals at our shelter.

When you give monthly, you’re not just donating. You’re showing up, again and again, for the animals who need you most. For the dog recovering from years of neglect. For the kitten born outside with no one to care for her. For the senior cat whose owner never came back. You become part of a special circle of hope - a lifeline for animals who arrive scared, injured, or forgotten.

Your gift becomes more than dollars, it becomes trust, consistency, and comfort. It means food in the bowl every morning, warmth through the night, and the resources to provide both medical and behavioral support while they wait for the right family to come along.

Monthly giving allows us to plan, to respond faster, and to say “yes” to animals with nowhere else to turn. It’s the most powerful way to stand with us, every day, all year long.

This kind of giving transforms not just individual lives, it transforms the future of our shelter. Join our community of monthly givers and become part of every happy ending at PMHS-CV.

Become a part of our Pack of Hope today and help an animal like Lily.

Little Lily is proof of the difference every donation makes.

Lily came into our care from a very neglectful home. Deaf, nearly blind, covered in fleas and completely emaciated. After lots of care and love from our medical team, staff and volunteers, Lily was able to go into an amazing foster home- and truly lived her absolute best life!

Your donation will help us continue our commitment to care for amazing animals like Lily who, with proper care, can let their spunky, incredible personalities shine bright!
