Mission

THE CONNECTICUT HUMANE SOCIETY IS THE LEADING RESOURCE IN THE STATE FOR COMPANION ANIMAL WELFARE, ENRICHING THE LIVES OF FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES THROUGH ADOPTION SERVICES, MEDICAL CARE, EDUCATION, AND PREVENTION OF CRUELTY.

Activities or mission (Part I)

THE CONNECTICUT HUMANE SOCIETY IS THE LEADING RESOURCE IN THE STATE FOR COMPANION ANIMAL WELFARE.

  • IN 2024, THE CONNECTICUT HUMANE SOCIETY (CHS) RAN THREE ANIMAL CARE AND ADOPTION CENTERS, SUCCESSFULLY FINDING HOMES FOR 1,451 ANIMALS. THESE PETS CAME FROM VARIOUS SOURCES: OWNER SURRENDERS, LAW ENFORCEMENT, AND PARTNER SHELTERS. EACH ANIMAL RECEIVED COMPREHENSIVE CARE: FOOD, EXERCISE, SHELTER, MEDICAL TREATMENT, ENRICHMENT, AND ADOPTION SERVICES. OUR DEDICATED STAFF VETERINARIANS CONDUCTED 11,070 MEDICAL EXAMS, ADMINISTERED 4,223 VACCINES, AND PERFORMED 1,138 SPAY/NEUTER SURGERIES. ADDITIONALLY, 415 PETS RECEIVED EXTRA BEHAVIOR SUPPORT. ON AVERAGE, EACH ANIMAL STAYED IN CARE FOR 40.3 DAYS BEFORE BEING ADOPTED. 670 PETS WHO WERE NOT YET READY FOR ADOPTION RECEIVED FOSTER CARE. NOTABLY, CHS NEVER EUTHANIZES ANIMALS DUE TO SPACE, BREED, AGE OR TIME CONSTRAINTS.

    Expenses $5,476,163 · Revenue $421,532

  • THE PUBLIC CLINIC PROGRAM OFFERS LOW-COST, DONOR-SUBSIDIZED VETERINARY CARE TO PETS WHO LACK ACCESS TO TRADITIONAL VETERINARY SERVICES. THE FOX MEMORIAL CLINIC SUPPORTS PET OWNERS FACING FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES, PROVIDING BOTH TREATMENT FOR INJURIES AND ILLNESSES AS WELL AS WELLNESS AND PREVENTIVE CARE. THE GOAL IS TO RELIEVE PAIN, EXTEND LIFE, AND KEEP PETS IN THEIR HOMES RATHER THAN IN SHELTERS. IN 2024, THE FOX MEMORIAL CLINIC SERVED 1,302 ANIMALS, ADMINISTERING 1,716 VACCINES AND PERFORMING 1 SPAY/NEUTER SURGERY. ADDITIONALLY, 10 MOBILE CLINICS ACROSS THE STATE PROVIDED CARE TO 319 PETS, DELIVERING A TOTAL OF 526 VACCINES.

    Expenses $1,195,099 · Revenue $402,227

  • CHS FIGHTS ANIMAL CRUELTY AND NEGLECT BY EDUCATING THE PUBLIC ON PROPER ANIMAL CARE AND HUMANE TREATMENT. WE ALSO EXTEND OUR IMPACT THROUGH ANIMAL WELFARE UNIVERSITY, WHERE THOUSANDS OF ANIMALS BENEFIT FROM TRAINING PROVIDED TO ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICERS AND HUMAN SERVICES PROFESSIONALS. ADDITIONALLY, WE OFFER ONE-ON-ONE CONSULTATIONS WITH PET OWNERS AND WORK WITH GOVERNMENT AGENCIES ON ANIMAL RELATED POLICIES. OUR CRISIS FOSTERING AND EMERGENCY RESOURCES PLAY A CRUCIAL ROLE IN KEEPING PETS IN THEIR HOMES. IN 2024, WE DISTRIBUTED 230,849 MEALS THROUGH OUR PET FOOD PANTRY. ADDITIONALLY, CHS IMPACTED 4,903 CHILDREN AND 7,904 ADULTS THROUGH 325 EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS VIA SCHOOLS, CAMPS, LIBRARIES, SHELTER TOURS AND ONLINE ENRICHMENT CLASSES.

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.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
