You Can Provide a Welcoming Gateway for Finding Forever Homes
Rancho Coastal Humane Society (RCHS) is open 6 days a week and available to the 3.3 million people of San Diego County and beyond. Whether you are looking for a new furry family member, bringing your child to summer camp, or participating in one of our many programs, the Welcome and Adoption Center is where it all starts.
The little yellow house built when RCHS first opened in 1960 – when the population was less than one million people – can barely accommodate staff and volunteers, let alone potential adopters. As the gateway to a pet’s Second Chance in a Forever Home, a refresh of the public area in the Welcome and Adoption Center is long overdue.
“Currently, RCHS can process about 1,000 adoptions each year. With the modernization
of our campus, new Medical Center, additional kennels, and a new Welcome and
Adoption Center, RCHS will have the potential to more than double that number!”
