Hey there, time traveller!

Across our city and province there are animals (and their humans) in crisis. Many are simply looking for their next meal. It takes many heroes to help keep the Winnipeg Hu-mane Society (WHS) in operation and working to ensure no animal goes hungry.
Sadia and Sharukh volunteer their time as WHS Emergency Pet Food Bank Drivers, collecting and distributing pet food for families in need. Growing up in the Islamic faith, they were encouraged to donate, a core belief and practice of Islam.
“It is important to both of us to give back to the community in any way we can, whether it’s financially or with our time,” says Sharukh. So every month, Sadia and Sharukh load up their car and deliver much needed pet supplies to families who need a helping hand.
These two heroes, plus countless others have delivered food to 1040 families this year, keeping furry bellies full and pets in their homes. We can’t do it without you.
Be a hero to an animal today. Donate today at WinnipegHumaneSociety.ca or call (204) 982-2041.
