How is HSKL Funded

  • The community, including local organizations, businesses and amazing everyday people, help us to keep our doors open and our animals healthy. We are 100 % funded through our adoption fees and donations. We do not receive any ongoing Government funding.

    We encourage third party fundraisers and happily accept online donations through our website. Other ways to support the animals you care about it to make a donation in memory or in honour of a loved one or pet.

    Did you know we have an incredible volunteer run thrift store located on our property called Second Chance (https://hskl.ca/thrift-store.html) where 100% of the proceeds support the animals in our care?

    Monthly Donors are a huge part of our sustainability. If you'd like more information on becoming a Monthly Donor, contact us at 705-878-4618, visit our Monthly Donor page, click our 'Donate' button, located at the top of this page, or click here!
