News & Events
As you may know, the Bangor Humane Society relies on donations from the public for over 60% of our funding each year. We receive no funding from local, state or federal sources and without your support we could not continue to provide quality care for the homeless and unwanted animals of our community.
Throughout the year we hold several different fundraising events, both ongoing and annual, in order to meet the needs of our animals. Continually, public support makes these events a success!
