What: Each February, HSHA conducts our Annual Glove Drive. This year, we know it will be harder than ever to reach our goal of 250 cases. We thank everyone for their past support and, if they are unable to contribute this year, please consider sharing via their social media!
Who: The mission of HSHA is to build a better community for pets and people through compassion, protection, education, and collaboration. The organization accepts homeless animals regardless of their breed, age, medical condition, or behavioral condition and takes in thousands of homeless animals each year.
Why: Wearing and properly changing gloves dramatically reduces the spread of life-threatening diseases in a shelter environment. We use roughly 300,000 latex, vinyl, or nitrile gloves to clean, medicate, and care for the thousands of homeless animals that come to our shelter from Dauphin, Cumberland, and Perry counties every year.
When: The entire month of February.
Where: There are three ways you can show your love for homeless pets right here in our area by supporting the 2020 HSHA Glove Drive.
- Drop off gloves directly at HSHA. 7790 Grayson Road, Harrisburg, PA 17111.
- Order gloves through Amazon to be sent directly to HSHA.
- Give a monetary donation to the Glove Drive via check or online
