APS Of Durham
The Animal Protection Society of Durham has been helping animals since 1970. The APS of Durham is a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting and providing shelter for all animals. Our mission is to educate the public about the humane care and treatment of animals, promote spay/neuter and encourage the adoption of homeless animals.
Description:
We care for nearly 7,000 dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens each year. Every day we provide safe, clean living quarters for hundreds of animals that come into our shelter. In addition to providing shelter to animals, we also provide low-cost rabies and microchip clinics to the public and educational programs to local schools and civic groups. We are a non-profit organization that relies on donations from our members and other donors in the community in order to fund these programs. We also heavily rely on volunteers for a wide variety of animal care needs, fundraising, education etc.
History:
The APS began in 1970 as a grassroots group of individuals dedicated to animal welfare. In 1990 the APS entered into a contract with the county to run the Durham County Animal Shelter.
