impact today

Support our mission by making a donation.

Our mission at the Duke Memorial Redwood Area Animal Shelter is simply this - we save and transform lives. We are here for the animals who need more time, more care, more sacrifice and more heart. We do not give up easily. We problem-solve. We show up. We make it work - because their lives matter.

But saving lives takes more than just our team. It takes a village. That village is YOU.

As ‘Give to the Max’ approaches, we invite you to be a part of our legacy. From now through November 20, every financial gift made through GiveMN.org to Duke Memorial Redwood Area Animal Shelter has the power to go even further. Each donation - as small as $5.00 - enters us into multiple grant drawings, multiplying your impact thanks to generous community sponsors.

When you give, you help save the next animal. You help rewrite the next survival story. You help bring more love into the world.

Consider supporting our 501(c)3 non profit animal shelter. Your monetary gift is tax deductible.

Together we can continue saying ‘yes’ to the animals who need us most.

Their words, our mission in action.

“It was an extremely nice building, so clean and the staff are very nice. I can tell the kittens are treated very well and are socialized. Will definitely be coming back for another visit!”

“Thanks to everyone involved for rescuing Roswell. He is a sweet and beautiful dog.”

“When we got to the Redwood Humane Society everything was clean, the cats had plenty of space to roam, and you could tell that the staff loved all of the animals in their care. We ourselves wanted to take home each and every cat we came across. We finally settled on a little kitten to bring home with us. The adoption process was easy and smooth. I highly recommend them if you’re looking to add a member to your family. Thank you Redwood Humane Society for taking care of our baby before we knew she was missing from our lives!”

Chyenne M.

“The people there were friendly there were several cats so if anybody’s looking for cats, please go to a shelter to get one you help save them. It is a no-kill shelter which is great. They only had one dog she’s really hyper but she’s a young dog and she’s a beautiful dog. Please remember to go to the local shelter to get your animals so that not only you helping the shelters but you’re helping the animals.

Absolutely wonderful staff and place. They really love the critters brought there and their live shows. Animals aren’t just caged up all the time and you can tell they are happy walking around, getting to see everyone. Helpful staff makes everything that much easier. Great Facebook page, too.
