The Edgecombe-Nash Humane Society is a non profit volunteer organization, which works to care for and find homes for stray, abandoned, and mistreated animals. We also investigate cruelty cases throughout Edgecombe and Nash Counties. Unfortunately, we do not have a shelter so all of our rescued pets are kept in foster homes and at local boarding facilities. All medical care, food, or any other neccesities for these rescued pets is funded strictly through donations as we do not receive any government, state, city, or county funding. The animals need your help so please consider making a donation, becoming a foster parent, or volunteer your time to walk the dogs or help out at our adoption events. If you have a business, we are in need of locations to place our doggies banks for donations. If you are interested and think that you could assist us with any of these things please call us at 446-1669 and someone will call you back.
