In honor of 56 years of service, NOCO Humane asks the community to donate to address the 153% increase in the service area since 2023.
Northern Colorado’s first nonprofit animal shelter, formerly known as Larimer Humane Society, opened its doors on April 1, 1969, as a grassroots, volunteer-led “safe haven for lost and unwanted pets,” according to a NOCO Humane news release. Over the years, the shelter has provided homeless pets with food, shelter and medical care.
Fifty-six years later, the nonprofit — now known as NOCO Humane after acquiring the Humane Society of Weld County — has become the largest open-door shelter in Northern Colorado, serving more than 11,500 animals annually.
NOCO Humane invites the community to celebrate the anniversary milestone by participating in its second annual Day of Giving on Tuesday.
In October 2023, NOCO Humane expanded its Larimer County operations into Weld County, acquiring the shelter facility in Evans. This has more than doubled its reach to the area’s animals and communities.
The nonprofit’s expansion has resulted in “critical care for more than 3,400 additional homeless animals” in the past year alone, according to the release. To meet a growing need and increase capacity for care, NOCO Humane will open a third facility called the Greeley Adoption Campus in late 2025.
Given the significant growth in just two years, The Day of Giving will rely on the community’s generosity to ensure the shelter can “provide life-saving care for decades to come,” the release said. Donations will “give the gift of shelter, nourishment and medical care to animals who need it most.”
Fetch Pet Insurance, a partner of the shelter, will also match all contributions up to $30,000, allowing community members to double their impact.
