Sponsorship Opportunities

Animal Housing Sponsorship

Sponsoring one of our companion animal housing units is a great way to show your support for the Willamette Humane Society. Not only are you helping shelter an animal, but housing sponsorships also assist in offsetting the daily care for the companion pets that reside there throughout the year.  Housing sponsorships are for one-year and include a plaque with your name (or name of a business or loved one that you designate) that will be displayed at the shelter and seen by the thousands of people that visit WHS each year.

  • Cat Suite - $1,000 (3 suite sponsorships available)
  • Dog Kennel - $500 (35 dog kennel sponsorships available)
  • Cat Kennel - $250 (36 cat kennel sponsorships available)
  • Rabbit Kennel - $100 (12 rabbit kennel sponsorships available)

    • For more information about kennel sponsorships, contact the development department at (503) 585-5900, ext. 660, or email

    Education Hall Sponsorship – $1,000 (limited to one)

    Sponsor the WHS Learning Center and get your name in front of numerous groups visiting the humane society learning center.  Not only is this center used to host hundreds of school programs and specialized youth education programs, but it is also Willamette Humane’s public space for meetings, gatherings, volunteer orientations, adult education programs, and is available for rent from other organizations.  The Education Hall Sponsorship is for one-year and includes a plaque with your name (or name of a business or loved one that you designate) that will be displayed in the learning center. 

    Pet Ad Sponsor

    The Willamette Humane Society has many magnificent pets up for adoption each day and one of our greatest awareness tools is the weekly Pet Ad published in the Statesman Journal.  Become a Pet Ad sponsor and help spread the word about these great pets. The ad includes your name or name of a business or loved one that you designate.

    Pet Ad sponsorships are $40 per pet, per week. Each weekly ad showcases 8-10 pets.  Pet Ad sponsorship funds are used solely to cover the cost of purchasing the print ad.

    For more information about Pet Ad sponsorships, please call (503) 585-5900, ext. 309, or email .

    Widen the Circle

    Sponsor and host a Widen the Circle fundraiser at your home.  These small gatherings provide you the opportunity to bring greater awareness about WHS with family, friends and co-workers.  You can share your reasons for supporting WHS and assist the humane society in cultivating new donor friends.  Whether it’s your own tea party, dessert party or any other social gathering, the Willamette Humane Society is honored to be the beneficiary of your commitment. 

    For more information on hosting your own Widen the Circle event, contact the WHS development office at (503) 585-5900, ext. 660, or email
