Our Impact

HART by the Numbers

HART for Animals serves the general population of Western Maryland and, to a lesser degree, the surrounding communities in West Virginia and Pennsylvania. Potential adopters, pet owners, animal lovers, and volunteers of all ages take advantage of the services available at the HART facilities. And it is those services that allow us to continue to save 1,000 animal lives every year.

These are our latest figures to date.

Transported animals are those that are transported to other rescues and shelters for adoption. Adopted are those animals adopted directly from the HART Center.

Adoptions began in 2014 when the HART Center was built, prior to that all animals were transported.

“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated. I hold that, the more helpless a creature, the more entitled it is to protection by man from the cruelty of man.”

— Mahatma Gandhi
