The Humane Society of York County (HSYC) was founded in 1976 to help address the needs of an ever-growing animal population. Originally, all animals were cared for in the homes of dedicated volunteers. In 1999 we moved into our current facility in Fort Mill, South Carolina, with the capacity to house over ninety cats and about fifty dogs. A small part-time staff, a director, and a group of wonderful volunteers keep the HSYC running. We have outgrown this facility, and look forward to a new beginning in a new building in 2011. Read the “Future Goals” section below to learn more about our exciting move.

The HSYC is a qualified 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Donations are tax deductible to the full extent of the law and 100% of your donation remains with the HSYC. Your donation is especially important as we receive no funding from the city, county or state and we are not affiliated with or supported by the Humane Society of the United States, the ASPCA or any other animal welfare organization.
