In 1979, a small group of women founded the Greater Birmingham Humane Society Auxiliary (GBHSA). The purpose of the organization was to assist the Greater Birmingham Humane Society by volunteering and raising funds to support their many programs and community efforts. That practice continues today, as the Auxiliary celebrates more than 30 years of service.
The Auxiliary hosts the GBHS’ annual Jazz Cat Ball, volunteers at the shelter, and supports other GBHS events.
The Greater Birmingham Humane Society Auxiliary is always seeking new members who are interested in working hard, making friends, and having fun!
In Loving Memory of Sharon Murphree Chapple Pierce
The GBHS and GBHS Auxiliary lost a beloved friend on Friday, September 24, 2010. Sharon Pierce was a long time friend and supporter of the GBHS and GBHS Auxiliary. A special fund was established in her memory so that her legacy of gentleness, compassion, and love may continue to help pets in need. You may make your donation online through the Sharon Pierce Memorial Fund donation form.
