Help us deliver humane education
AnimalSmart™ is the Ontario SPCA and Humane Society’s humane education program. Presentations are free and are available to school and community groups in our animal centre communities for Grades 1-8. The goal of AnimalSmart™ is to foster empathy, promote responsibility and inspire a connection with animals. Presentations include grade-specific engaging content that promotes understanding and a sense of responsibility for the well-being of animals.
Your purchases support our educational mission and dedicated volunteers, helping us reach more students and foster positive relationships with animals. All proceeds from your purchase will go back into supporting the growth of the AnimalSmart™ program. Your generosity will allow us to reach even more students in schools, libraries, and summer camp groups, spreading awareness and education about animal well-being and being a responsible pet caregiver.
Empowering communities through education
