Upcoming Events
Please join us for these events in December:
- 12/1/2022-12/14/2022: Stocking Sponsorship- This holiday season you can sponsor one of our beloved pets at Humane Society of West Michigan! From December 1st to December 14th you can send a little extra love to a shelter pet of your choice; with this sponsorship, an animal at HSWM will receive a stocking or wreath FULL of their favorite goodies and treats.
