Newnan-Coweta Humane Society (NCHS), located in Newnan, Georgia, is a 501(c)3 all volunteer, non-profit organization, dedicated to reducing the number of pets euthanized at Coweta County Animal Control. Through rescue, foster programs, and community awareness, our goal is to one day eliminate the euthanization of healthy, adoptable animals in our area.
NCHS was founded in 1975 and is the oldest humane society or animal welfare organization in Coweta County. We do not receive federal, state, or county funding. We rely completely on donations, grants and fees collected from adoptions to fund our rescue efforts. We maintain an active presence at the Coweta County Animal Control facility, but are NOT directly affiliated with the county government. We serve the animals at that facility, by taking photos and videos and posting them to our website, hosting a weekly TV show "Adopt-a-Pet", working with many local, regional and out-of-state rescues to facilitate rescue for animals facing euthanasia. We have an active foster program where we foster animals and place them for adoption locally at PetsMart and other off-site locations.
NCHS does NOT own, operate, or manage our own stand-alone shelter. The work we do is primarily in conjunction with Coweta County Animal Control but we are SEPARATE entities. Volunteers welcome! Donations accepted. Thank you for your support.
