Humane Society of Missouri Auxiliary
The Humane Society of Missouri Auxiliary was formed in 1975 by a group of dedicated individuals to raise funds for different needs of the Humane Society of Missouri. Their first exciting accomplishment was a pet supply shop called "Adopt n' Shop," located within the Macklind Avenue headquarters. This was the first shop of its kind in the country within a humane society, and was so successful that another shop was opened at the Maryland Heights branch. In 1980, the Auxiliary opened a spay/neuter clinic at the Maryland Heights Branch. They then contributed an additional $80,000 for a wing expansion at the branch in 1981.
The Auxiliary has grown to nearly 500 members who have generated over $300,000 to help the thousands of unwanted and neglected animals who pass through the doors of the Humane Society of Missouri.
