We had an amazing time at our Lights of Hope Festival, presented by Blaze Air Heating and AC, earlier this month! Seeing the community come together to honor the animals that have been in our care and support Forsyth Humane Society in such a powerful way was truly heartwarming. It was a magical evening filled with beautiful lights, delicious food, great company, and so much love. THANK YOU to all the organizations and sponsors who made this event possible. Your support means the world to us and helps us continue our mission to provide hope and second chances to the animals who need it most. We couldn’t have done it without you! Thank you for helping us light up the night and bring joy to so many. If you couldn’t attend the event but would still like to support, consider dedicating a light to an animal you love.

“Compassion in Action.” Those three words embody everything we stand for here at Forsyth Humane Society. Compassion in action is the heartbeat of our mission, forging more profound, meaningful connections and sparking positive change. This video highlights our commitment to that change, showing the dedication of our team and the love that fuels our mission to provide a better life for every pet in Forsyth County. It was created as part of our 2024 Raise a Paw celebration for our Furr Ball Gala to highlight the incredible impact Forsyth Humane Society has made over the past year. We hope you enjoy it!
