Our Wish List
Wish lists for the animals at Heartland Animal Shelter:
DONATING ITEMS DURING CONSTRUCTION
We are so grateful for the thoughtful donation of items for our animals!With our shelter building under construction and while we are still operating at a temporary facility at the airport, our storage space is more limited than ever. We would appreciate it if you could wait to donate any of your gently used items (towels, blankets, toys, food, etc.) until January. In the meantime, we may still reach out for items that we need, and we will provide information on how to best get them to us. If you’d rather not wait, please consider donating to one of our Chicagoland Humane Coalition partners. Thanks again and we hope to see you soon!
Most of all, they wish for a forever home, but, in the meantime, they can really use the items off of our wish list to keep them happy and healthy.
Did you know that you can shop on Amazon or Chewy and set up recurring donations to the shelter?
