WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Picture
The Humane Society of the BVI is a non profit organization, founded in 1975 and is the only animal shelter in the BVI, that offers a safe shelter to dogs & puppies, cats & kittens that have been abandoned, are unwanted and in some cases severely mistreated and abused. Unfortunately we have been given notice to the lease of our current premises in Johnson's Ghut and we are now seeking funds to develop our land in Josiah’s Bay with the steel structure we own.
The plan is to build a larger and more modern shelter, with larger cages, cat pens, dog runs, veterinarian and boarding facilities.

PLEASE HELP US CONTINUE OUR MISSION!

OTHER WAYS YOU CAN HELP

ADOPT or FOSTER
The purpose of an Animal Shelter is to find new homes for the abandoned dogs we are taking care of. We are always looking for people that can bring a dog or a cat home and give it the love and care it so desperately needs. If you cannot commit taking an animal forever, then please consider fostering for a few days/weeks/months

OUR NEW RENOVATION PROJECT IN OCTOBER 2018:

In October this year, GK Construction volunteered to renovate the old building at Johnson's Ghut as a donation. Heavily damaged by Irma, only part of the roof had been replaced by volunteers earlier in 2018. Now a new puppy play-pen and a new kitten play-pen with quarantine cages, a new bird cage, an extra storage shack, were added and the roof and walls were repaired and repainted.

 SHELTER  RENOVATIONS

In April 2019 we started renovating the back section of the Animal shelter in the following 4 phases, which we completed in June 2019:
  • PHASE 1: New guttering, install drainage and collect water in 2 water tanks
  • PHASE 2: New fencing within the old fencing. Create 9 outdoor dog runs with concrete pads & roofs for shelter against sun or rain
  • PHASE 3: New addition to existing building. Concrete floor and roof over 7 new large 5'x8' cages for boarding
  • PHASE 4: New cages to replace existing cages. Most cages are now 2' longer. New large cages for new addition (phase 3) and 6 new double small cages

NEW  SHELTER  BUILDING

In 2013, the Humane Society purchased one acre of land in Josiah's Bay for $150,000 for relocating the shelter. In 2016 a steel structure was purchased for $100,000 and imported after Town and Country Planning approved the plans. Ground breaking was intended for the autumn of 2017. Following Hurricane Irma and the recovery, planning & fund-raising efforts were halted, but the land and structure are still available to be used in the future.

Following Hurricane Irma, the shelter suffered severe damage and our priorities had to shift from the construction of the new shelter, to making necessary improvements and enhancements at the current facility to create a safe and healthy shelter again.

Unfortunately, we have been given notice to the lease of our current premises in Johnson's Ghut, as the landlords wish to develop the land. We are now seeking funds to develop our land in Josiah’s Bay with the steel structure we own. The plan is to build a larger and more modern shelter, with larger cages, cat pens, dog runs, veterinarian and boarding facilities.
