About Humane Society of New York:
Since 1904, the Humane Society of New York has been a presence in New York City, reaching out to animals in need when illness, injury or homelessness strikes. Today its high quality, low cost clinic, its spay and neuter programs and The Vladimir Horowitz and Wanda Toscanini Horowitz Adoption Center help 33,000 dogs and cats annually, and their numbers continue to grow. The cost of caring is high and, for the Society, help is made possible entirely by its own fund raising efforts, including the charitable gifts of people who value, and choose to support its mission.
