WHY SUPPORT AARCS

AARCS has a proven track record of performance, fiscal responsibility, and growth management. This has helped us save over 22,000 animal lives since our inception in 2006. AARCS provides the highest level of animal care, including medical management, and has developed industry-leading adoption programs. As a member of Humane Canada and a leader in animal welfare in Alberta, AARCS uses its collaborative relationships to work towards ending animal homelessness throughout our province. In conjunction with our rescue efforts, we offer spay and neuter community initiatives and humane education programs to tackle the root of the problem.  When tragedy strikes in our province, our animal disaster response capabilities allow us to quickly deploy teams where help is most needed.

The Power To Change Lives

Temporary Housing

AARCS North Haven can be used as temporary housing for newly rescued animals, until foster space becomes available.

Emergency Shelter

North Haven provides an emergency shelter for animals rescued from severe situations.

Quarantine Shelter

This well-equipped, hygienic facility is designed for the appropriate quarantine required by rescued animals when they first arrive into AARCS care.

Adoption Centre

North Haven has an on-site adoption centre for cats and small animals (such as rabbits and guinea pigs), helping homeless animals find loving homes each year. 

Donation Centre

Donations can be dropped off Monday through Sunday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, or the bins on the East side of the building after hours

Northern Operations Centre

North Haven also operates as a shared office space, and storage facility. It’s here that we provide space for training, volunteer meetings, and educational seminars.

Together
we can save lives
