Toronto Humane Society Renews Life-Saving Collaboration with Amazon: Over 1,700 Pets Adopted in 2023 Alone! 

| November 14, 2024

Toronto Humane Society is thrilled to announce the renewal of our impactful collaboration with Amazon as the Adoption Program Title Sponsor. This powerful collaboration, valued at an incredible $120,000, will make a lasting difference by helping more animals find their forever homes across the city.  

Teaming up with Amazon has been instrumental in supporting Toronto Humane Society’s mission to improve the lives of animals—and we’re just getting started! In 2023 alone, thanks to this collaboration, over 1,700 pets were adopted into loving homes. With Amazon’s renewed commitment, we’re ready to keep this momentum going and help even more pets find the care and companionship they deserve.  

Amazon’s Ongoing Commitment to Pets and Their Families

Under this sponsorship, Amazon will continue to support our adoption program until August 14, 2025, ensuring that pets receive not only the essentials they need but also the love and happiness of a permanent home. Whether it’s helping with adoption events or providing post-adoption support, Amazon’s involvement helps pet parents from the very start of their journey.  

Omar Syed, Head of Pets at Amazon, shared his enthusiasm for the collaboration:  

“At Amazon, we believe in the power of companionship that pets bring to our lives. This belief aligns perfectly with Toronto Humane Society’s mission of improving the lives of animals. That’s why we’re incredibly proud to sponsor this remarkable organization for the second consecutive year. Our renewed support is more than just a financial commitment—it’s a testament to our faith in the vital work carried out by Toronto Humane Society. From rescuing animals to providing medical care, shelter, and facilitating adoptions, the impact of Toronto Humane Society on our community is immeasurable.” 

Phil Nichols, CEO of Toronto Humane Society, echoed Omar’s sentiment:  

“We are delighted to welcome Amazon as our Adoption Program Title Sponsor. This collaboration represents a shared commitment to the well-being of animals and the belief that every pet deserves a loving home. Amazon’s generous support will significantly contribute to our efforts in providing a brighter future for animals in need.” 

Special Perks for Pet Parents

In addition to their generous financial support, Amazon is offering a 50% discount on eligible pet products to anyone who adopts through Toronto Humane Society. This special discount will help new pet parents equip their homes with everything needed to care for their new family member.  

The stories of animals like Ramon, a 2.5-year-old Coonhound mix, that truly showcase the impact of the collaboration between Amazon and the Toronto Humane Society. Ramon’s previous pet parent had to make the tough decision to rehome him after a job change that left them unable to provide him with the time and enrichment he needed. Heartbroken but determined to give Ramon a better life, they turned to Toronto Humane Society.  

Because of Amazon’s support, Ramon found a new home in just two weeks. His new family, eager for a playful and energetic companion, welcomed him with open arms, giving him the love and attention he needed. Ramon’s story is just one example of how the Toronto Humane Society and Amazon collaboration changes lives—both for the animals and their new families.
