About Us

The Casper Humane Society is a 501(c)3 Non-Profit Organization.

Before 1956, Casper did not have an organized humane organization to care for homeless animals.  Velma Funda saw the need for one and in 1956, she established a network of foster homes where animals were cared for until permanent homes were found. 

 In 1969, the Mountain View site was purchased, and an existing garage was utilized until a structure was built in 1978.

After several years of fundraising, the present "state of the art" shelter was opened in 2003.
