We have several ongoing fundraising efforts underway. Your participation in most of them is free, and we receive money to help fund our spay and neuter voucher program.
Run For It
The Mountaineer Humane Society participates in the Run for It event each year. If you are not familiar with the event, it is an opportunity for non-profit organizations to raise money and earn prize money. You can join our team, The Cruisin' Critters, by registering as a team member at Run For It (runsignup.com). You can participate in person or virtually, so you don't even have to be in town the day of the race. If you don't want to be a team member, but would like to support our team, you can use the same link to donate to our team. We get half of the registration fees and all of the donations made for our team. Make sure you indicate that you want to support The Cruisin' Critters-Mountaineer Humane Society when you fill out the form. Prize money awarded at the event is based on fundraising and team size, so any help is appreciated.

We also have a fund established through the Tucker Community Foundation. Tax deductible donations can be made at any time. Our fund is now fully established, and we now receive the interest from the fund to use in the community. Donations can be made in memory of loved ones, or for any other reason. Make sure you indicate that you would like your donation to go to the Mountaineer Humane Society fund. The site can be accessed at Donate | Tucker Community Foundation (tuckerfoundation.net)

Internet Searches
- www.goodsearch.com is a search engine that pays a penny a search. While that does not seem like much, think about how many searches you do in a day's time. If everyone who was searching online selected a cause to receive a penny for each search, the organizations would have extra funds. Make sure you indicate that you wish to support the Mountaineer Humane Society.
- www.isearchigive.com works the same way Good Search does.
Online Shopping
- www.igive.com is another site that supports organizations. iGive works with different online stores to direct a percentage of the purchase price to organizations. If you are going to be shopping online anyhow, why not support us in the process. It does not add to the cost of your purchase but adds to the amount sent to us each quarter. Once again, make sure you select Mountaineer Humane Society as the organization you are supporting.
- www.goodshop.com is similar to iGive.
