Education for Parents and Kids

 

Education is an important part of how we work toward our purpose of creating a more humane world. By teaching children about the importance of treating the world around them with empathy and compassion, we’re one step closer to a kinder world. We educate youth on responsible pet ownership and violence prevention in conjunction with larger lessons on human rights, environmental preservation, and animal protection.

Day Camps

These interactive experiences offer youth a chance to learn about responsible pet care, proper animal handling, and future job opportunities at Calgary Humane Society.

Youth Clubs

The goal of our youth clubs is to learn as much as possible about animals. The more we know, the better we are able to be their friends.

Book A Tour

With a guided tour behind the scenes at Calgary Humane Society, we can answer kids’ common questions like, “what is a humane society?” and “what kind of animals do you take in?” While many people think they can only visit a humane society to adopt an animal, Calgary Humane Society is a resource for all Calgarians, and we’re happy to welcome all curious visitors.
