FIRST RESPONDERS TRAVEL THE NATION WITH A FLEET OF SPECIALLY EQUIPPED RESCUE VEHICLES.AMERICAN HUMANE RESCUE SERVES THE ANIMAL VICTIMS OF UNIMAGINABLE CRUELTY AND ABUSE. OUR EMERGENCY RESCUE TEAM COLLABORATES WITH LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES ON LARGE-SCALE ANIMAL CRUELTY INVESTIGATIONS, INVOLVING EVERYTHING FROM HOARDING CASES TO PUPPY MILLS AND DOGFIGHTING OPERATIONS.

• AMERICAN HUMANE MILITARY WORKING DOG REUNIFICATIONAMERICAN HUMANE SOCIETY IS COMMITTED TO HELPING AMERICA'S VETERANS AND RECOGNIZING THEIR HEROIC CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE UNITED STATES BOTH ON AND OFF THE BATTLEFIELD. AMERICAN HUMANE SOCIETY HAS WORKED WITH THE U.S. MILITARY FOR OVER A CENTURY: THE ANIMAL RESCUE PROGRAM WAS BORN ON THE BATTLEFIELDS OF WORLD WAR I EUROPE, WHERE, AT THE REQUEST OF THE U.S. SECRETARY OF WAR, VOLUNTEERS WITH AMERICAN HUMANE SOCIETY DEPLOYED TO RESCUE AND CARE FOR 68,000 WOUNDED WAR HORSES EACH MONTH.WE CONTINUE TO PROUDLY HONOR THIS LEGACY TODAY THROUGH OUR PROGRAM THAT REUNITES RETIRED MILITARY WORKING DOGS WITH THEIR FORMER HANDLERS. AMERICAN HUMANE SOCIETY RAISES FUNDS TO COVER THE COSTS OF TRANSPORTATION AND COORDINATES THE REUNIFICATION PROCESS. ADDITIONALLY, WE PROVIDE LIFETIME VETERINARY CARE FOR THE DOGS WE REUNITE WITH THEIR HANDLERS, SUPPORTING THEIR HEALTH AND HAPPINESS FOR YEARS TO COME.AMERICAN HUMANE PUPS4PATRIOTS PROGRAMAMERICAN HUMANE SOCIETY HELPS PROVIDE LIFESAVING SERVICE DOGS TO VETERANS AND RETIRED FIRST RESPONDERS SUFFERING FROM POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS (PTS) AND/OR TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY (TBI). RESEARCH SHOWS THAT SPECIALLY TRAINED SERVICE DOGS CAN REDUCE STRESS AND ANXIETY LEVELS, MITIGATE DEPRESSION, EASE SOCIAL REINTEGRATION, PROVIDE COMFORT AND RESTORE CONFIDENCE IN AFFECTED VETERANS AND FIRST RESPONDERS. HOWEVER, MANY OBSTACLES OFTEN PREVENT THESE HEROES FROM GAINING ACCESS TO SERVICE DOGS. AMERICAN HUMANE SOCIETY BRIDGES A CRITICAL GAP OF CARE AND COMPANIONSHIP. PUPS4PATRIOTS DOGS ARE TRAINED ACCORDING TO AMERICAN HUMANE SOCIETY'S SERVICE DOG GUIDELINES AN APPROACH INFORMED BY A SCIENTIFIC ADVISORY COMMITTEE OF VETERAN EXPERTS, MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, SCIENTISTS, ANIMAL WELFARE SPECIALISTS, VETERINARIANS, DOG TRAINERS AND OTHER KEY ADVOCATES.

• OTHERAMERICAN HUMANE HERO DOG AWARDS THE AMERICAN HUMANE HERO DOG AWARDS IS AN ANNUAL, NATIONWIDE COMPETITION THAT SEARCHES OUT AND RECOGNIZES AMERICA'S HERO DOGS OFTEN ORDINARY DOGS WHO DO EXTRAORDINARY THINGS, WHETHER IT'S SAVING LIVES ON THE BATTLEFIELD, LENDING SIGHT OR HEARING TO A HUMAN COMPANION, OR HELPING PEOPLE ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS. DOGS ARE HONORED IN MULTIPLE CATEGORIES FOR THE HERO DOG AWARDS: LAW ENFORCEMENT AND FIRST RESPONDER DOGS THIS CATEGORY BROADLY INCLUDES DOGS THAT ARE CRITICAL TO FIRST RESPONDERS, THAT SAFEGUARD THE PUBLIC, AND THAT FIND THE MISSING AND VICTIMS OF DISASTERS. LAW ENFORCEMENT DOGS' ABILITY TO HELP PROTECT THEIR HUMAN HANDLERS, THWART LAWBREAKERS, AND FIND EVIDENCE MAKES THEM TRUE PARTNERS TO FIRST RESPONDERS. SCENT DETECTION DOGS CAN ACCURATELY DETECT A VARIETY OF TARGETS, INCLUDING CORRECTLY IDENTIFYING A MULTITUDE OF DISEASES AND FLORA AND FAUNA, AND ARE USED TO DETECT ILLICIT SUBSTANCES, DRUGS, FIRE ACCELERANTS, FIREARMS, OR EXPLOSIVES. SEARCH AND RESCUE DOGS ARE TRAINED TO FIND THE MISSING, FROM THOSE LOST IN THE WILDERNESS OR CITY TO VICTIMS OF ACCIDENTS AND NATURAL DISASTERS. SERVICE AND GUIDE/HEARING DOGS SERVICE DOGS ARE TRAINED TO PERFORM SPECIFIC TASKS FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES AS DEFINED BY THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT (ADA). THEY CAN BE TRAINED TO WORK WITH PEOPLE WITH PHYSICAL MOBILITY NEEDS OR LIMITATIONS, OR PEOPLE WHO NEED ALERTS TO MEDICAL CONDITIONS. THEY CAN ALSO SERVE AS THE "EYES AND EARS" FOR THE BLIND AND/OR DEAF OR PERFORM TASKS FOR THOSE WITH PSYCHIATRIC DISABILITIES SUCH AS POST TRAUMATIC STRESS OR TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY.THESE SPECIALLY TRAINED DOGS CAN EVEN HELP BY RETRIEVING OR MANIPULATING OBJECTS THAT ARE OUT OF THEIR PERSON'S REACH, ALERTING BYSTANDERS AND RETRIEVING HELP FOR THEIR HANDLER, LEADING WHILE AVOIDING DISTRACTIONS AND OBSTACLES, AND MANY OTHER INDIVIDUAL TASKS AS NEEDED BY A PERSON WITH A DISABILITY. THESE HEROES NOT ONLY IMPROVE THE LIVES OF THE PEOPLE WITH WHOM THEY WORK, BUT ALSO KEEP THEM SAFE EVERY DAY. THERAPY DOGS CREDENTIALED ANIMAL-ASSISTED THERAPY (AAT) DOGS ARE PART OF A THERAPEUTIC PLAN TO AID WITH PHYSICAL, SOCIAL, EMOTIONAL, AND COGNITIVE CHALLENGES FOR PERSONS OTHER THAN THE DOG'S OWNER/HANDLER. AAT HAS BEEN SHOWN TO HELP ENHANCE THE LIVES OF PEOPLE IN NEED SUCH AS CHILDREN WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED ABUSE OR NEGLECT, PATIENTS UNDERGOING CHEMOTHERAPY OR OTHER DIFFICULT MEDICAL TREATMENTS, AND MILITARY VETERANS AND THEIR FAMILIES WHO ARE STRUGGLING TO COPE WITH THE EFFECTS OF WARTIME MILITARY SERVICE. STUDIES HAVE FOUND THAT AAT LOWERS BLOOD PRESSURE, REDUCES STRESS AND ENHANCES A PATIENT'S ABILITY TO ACHIEVE PHYSICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL WELLNESS. MILITARY DOGS MILITARY WORKING DOGS FIRST ENTERED THE SERVICE IN 1942 TO SERVE IN THE ARMY'S K-9 CORPS. TODAY, THESE DOGS ARE STILL PLAYING AN ACTIVE ROLE IN SEARCHING FOR EXPLOSIVES AND SEIZING ENEMIES. MILITARY WORKING DOGS HAVE BEEN USED BY THE U.S. ARMED FORCES SINCE WORLD WAR I. IN WORLD WAR II, 436 SCOUT DOGS WALKED COMBAT PATROLS OVERSEAS, OFTEN DETECTING THE ENEMY AT 1,000 YARDS, LONG BEFORE THE ENEMY BECAME AWARE OF THEM. DOGS CONTINUED TO SERVE WITH DISTINCTION IN OTHER CONFLICTS, SUCH AS KOREA, WHERE THE ARMY USED ABOUT 1,500 DOGS, PRIMARILY FOR GUARD DUTY. DURING THE VIETNAM WAR, NEARLY 4,000 DOGS WERE EMPLOYED AND, OFFICIALLY, 281 WERE KILLED IN ACTION. TODAY'S CONFLICTS INCLUDE DOGS AT EVERY LEVEL, STILL SERVING OUR COUNTRY, HELPING TO PROTECT OUR TROOPS. EMERGING HERO AND SHELTER DOGS JUST AS OUR UNDERSTANDING OF ANIMAL BEHAVIOR AND SCIENCE IS EVER EXPANDING, SO TOO DO THE AMAZING STORIES OF THE HUMAN ANIMAL BOND IN ACTION. DOGS IN THIS CATEGORY CAN BE NOMINATED FOR DOING HEROIC DEEDS, LARGE OR SMALL; FOR OVERCOMING DIFFICULT ODDS; OR BY HAVING A REMARKABLE RESCUE STORY LIKE THE MILLIONS OF HOMELESS DOGS IN SHELTERS, ON THE STREETS, OR NEEDING HELP FROM UNFAVORABLE SITUATIONS. WHETHER IT WAS A SECOND CHANCE AND A NEW "LEASH" ON LIFE OR JUST A PERFECT FIT THAT WAS MEANT TO BE, THESE DOGS HIGHLIGHT WHAT IT MEANS TO BE MAN'S BEST FRIEND.AFTER VOTING BY THE AMERICAN PUBLIC, WINNERS IN EACH CATEGORY ARE HONORED AT THE STAR-STUDDED AMERICAN HUMANE HERO DOG AWARDS GALA IN PALM BEACH, FLORIDA.THIS POPULAR, YEARLY NATIONAL CAMPAIGN DRAWS HUNDREDS OF COURAGEOUS CANINES FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY, MORE THAN A MILLION VOTES BY THE AMERICAN PUBLIC, AND FOUR BILLION MEDIA IMPRESSIONS, INCLUDING FEATURES BY NBC NIGHTLY NEWS WITH LESTER HOLT KID'S EDITION, TODAY SHOW AND PEOPLE MAGAZINE.AMERICAN HUMANE SOCIETY SANCTUARY DURING FISCAL YEAR 2024, AMERICAN HUMANE SOCIETY PURCHASED A 14.2-ACRE PROPERTY IN PALM CITY, FLORIDA, AS THE NEW HOME OF THE AMERICAN HUMANE SOCIETY SANCTUARY.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here. A text marked withheld matched a screen for wording that may name a private individual, such as an honorific or "in memory of". Most of what it withholds names no one; it is withheld so that what does is never shown.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.
