Humane Society of Genesee County

The Humane Society of Genesee County (HSGC) is a non-profit, 501 (c) 3 organization that has existed in Genesee County for nearly a century. Our advocacy is centered around the care and welfare of companion animals.
Our mission is to provide shelter and adoption of companion animals, reduce overpopulation, extend humane education, prevent cruelty, and provide those services that promote the goals and polices of the Humane Society of Genesee County. The HSGC's focus remains on the companion animals of Genesee County. We are committed to treating all animals and people with dignity and respect. We will provide the best possible humane treatment of animals in our care until we are able to locate their forever homes.
