Other Ways to Give

Heart of the Valley, is a private 501(c)(3) non-profit animal shelter located in Bozeman serving the Gallatin and Madison Counties including Bozeman, Belgrade, Manhattan, Three Forks, Big Sky, and West Yellowstone.

Every contribution to HOV we receive goes to critical expenses such as shelter, spay-neuter operations, food, medical treatments, vaccinations, and a caring staff for the thousands of lost and homeless animals at the shelter. Your donation will help to create a second chance for the animals at Heart of the Valley Animal Shelter. Please know that your generosity is deeply appreciated. We are happy to count you among our valued community of supporters.

Heart of the Valley does not sell, rent, exchange or otherwise release information about its donors or customers.
