Ohlone Humane Society
Our Mission
Ohlone Humane Society is a 501(c)(3) animal welfare nonprofit serving Fremont, Newark and Union City. We advocate for all creatures, from urban wildlife to companion animals. While OHS doesn’t operate a shelter, we’re one of the few humane societies to maintain a wildlife rehabilitation center.
Founded in 1983, OHS has expanded its programs and services to benefit the animals and our community. They range from therapy dog teams visiting senior care facilities to pet meals on wheels helping our underserved community.
