It is our goal to join together a broad spectrum of animal lovers by promoting the joys and rewards of responsible pet ownership. We believe this is possible through education, outreach and grantmaking.

Through our fund-raising efforts, we exist to administer grants to organizations that:

1) Provide for well-being of all dogs
2) Raise awareness and educate the public about responsible pet ownership
3) Celebrate and preserve the bond between people and animals, especially the relationship between dogs and mankind.

The AKC Humane Fund is a not-for-profit charity, and we highly encourage you to become a member by making a contribution.
