🎾💦 Darcy Dives for Donations is making a splash THIS Friday! 💦🎾

Our Executive Director, Darcy Andrade, is going headfirst into the kiddie pool at Yappy Hour at Bell Tower — all to raise funds for the pets of Gulf Coast Humane Society!

🐾 $100 = 5 tries for Darcy to catch a tennis ball in her mouth.
🐶 $25 = YOU try it yourself for bragging rights and wet clothes!

We’ll have towels, treats, and lots of laughter — and 100% of the proceeds go to shelter pets in need. Come cheer, donate, and dive in!

📍 Bell Tower Yappy Hour
📅 This Friday
🕕 Splashing starts at 6 PM

With the surge of animals in our care this summer, we're running low on some crucial supplies—and we could really use your help!

We are in urgent need of:
✔️ Gently used or new sheets
✔️ Foster care supplies (Amazon wish list below.)
✔️ Wet food for kittens and cats (we go through so much every day!)

These items are essential for our foster families and shelter pets, who open their homes to the most vulnerable pets—especially fragile kittens and puppies needing extra TLC.

🐶 Want to become a foster? It’s one of the most rewarding ways to help! Learn more and apply here:

Levy has been with us since February 12, 2025—and at 7 years old, he’s been passed over time and again simply because of his age. But those who know Levy see what a playful companion he truly is.

Levy struggled with the stress of shelter life. The noise, the confinement—it stresses him. But once he moved into a foster home, his whole personality blossomed.

Now, he’s all about the simple joys:
🎾 Frisbee is life (seriously—he’d play 24/7).
🌳 Quiet parks and car rides are his happy place.
🛋️ He’s learning to cuddle, getting braver with thunderstorms, and mastering home routines.

👉 And we urgently need more fosters without other animals.
Almost all of our long-term dogs, like Levy, don’t do well with other pets, which makes it even harder to place them—whether in foster or adoptive homes.

📆 Between 05/01/2025 and 07/07/2025, we needed foster support for 683 cats and dogs, many of them just like Levy.

You can help an adult dog get the second chance they deserve.
