Humane Society of Genesee County

The Humane Society of Genesee County traces its beginnings to 1926 and the interest and efforts of Mr. Jonathan E. Burroughs, a respected member of the Flint community. Mr. Burroughs and his colleagues shared a concern for animals which was translated into a shelter without walls; where homeless animals were cared for by volunteers. The focus of the Humane Society of Genesee County has always been the overpopulation and care of companion animals (dogs, cats, puppies and kittens) of Genesee County.
