Government funding was $58k in 2024 only. 2. Deferred Revenue: Ci adjusted for deferred revenue within donations. This affected revenue by $9k in 2024, ($3k) in 2023, and $17k in 2022.

The following comment was added by the charity on February 1, 2024. 

Calgary Humane Society (CHS) is rooted in values of compassion, courage, commitment and collaboration which strengthen the social fabric of a rapidly changing and increasingly complex society. We have rallied to meet ever-increasing needs that have had a significant impact on the quality of life enjoyed in Calgary. As the city continues to grow and expand, it is becoming increasingly important for the Calgary Humane Society to effectively and proactively respond to animal welfare issues not only for today, but for the future.  

• Protections and Investigations – In 2022, our team investigated 1195 reports of possible animal cruelty and neglect, 51 individuals charged, and 891 animals were seized. In 2022, our Protection and Investigations team continued to lead, nationally in their area by developing and executing training for frontline police officers through the Alberta Association of Chiefs of Police, culminating in hundreds more boots on the ground in the fight against animal cruelty.  This partnership between CHS and Calgary Police Services has been fruitful as Calgary cases continue to break and set new incarceration records for animal cruelty crimes, including 2022’s GEICK conviction, raising the precedent from 2 to 3 years. 
• Pet Safekeeping– In 2022, Calgary Humane Society received 100 animals from owners fleeing domestic violence. These animals remained in our care for an average of 33 days while their owner sought safety. 79% were returned to their owner healthy and happy, with up-to-date vaccines and a spay/neuter surgery. The remaining 21% were adopted into new homes. Calgary Humane Society has over 1,000 Foster Parents who provide a safe haven for many animals entering our care, but it is particularly beneficial for animals of the Pet Safekeeping program. In 2022, 69% of the 100 animals from Pet Safekeeping went to a foster home. Foster care introduces these animals to a secure, safe and stable environment, counter to the volatile home they once knew. Calgary Humane Society continues to collaborate with partnering organizations promoting access to Pet Safekeeping and acts as a consultant on the development of pet friendly spaces in human shelters alike.   
• Emergency Boarding - Calgary Humane Society offers short term housing for people in crisis through the Emergency Boarding program. Unforeseen crisis can occur, such as hospitalization due to a sudden medical emergency, evacuation from fire, individuals entering a rehab recovery program, or senior health concerns.
• Continued Companionship - The Calgary Humane Society offers resources to seniors through our Continued Companionship Program. This program combats seniors’ vulnerabilities by retaining or creating connection opportunities with domestic pets. Resources include medical support, euthanasia and cremation services, food bank services including prescription diets, affordable adoption fees and volunteer opportunities.
• Humane Education –Is defined as the teaching of compassion, empathy and respect related to animal welfare, environmental, and social justice issues. In a world where education is about standardized testing and subject performance, it is easy to lose sight of what the real purpose of education should be: guiding the next generation to be caring, compassionate and responsible citizens that are capable of changing the world. Reaching a total of 19,822 youth, CHS represents the animal welfare component of Humane Education, presenting it as an interconnected and integral dimension of a healthy, just society.
• Adoption– In 2022 CHS has connected lives for 2,371 animals and families. Lives have been saved, hearts have been healed and health has improved. Every day we receive stories of emotional, psychological, and physical inspiration surrounding the human/animal bond. 
• Animal Health – In 2022 over 100,000 medical procedures were performed, including surgeries, re-check exams and physiotherapy sessions. Calgary Humane Society provides compassionate, humane health care to all homeless animals admitted into the facility. The Phoenix Fund is a special fund set aside for animals with special needs that require emergency medical treatment. Burns, amputations, skin grafts, or other specialized surgeries require extra medical support. Thanks to the Pheonix Fund, CHS has the ability to deal with these emergencies and those animals in critical need are most often brought here. A chief mandate of the organization relates to the strategies it employs for inclusive community engagement. Our animal health team works closely with University of Calgary, contributing quantifiably to Veterinary student training. We host countless hands-on job shadow experiences, educational resources, tours, presentations, and field studies (herd health management) supporting the Veterinary medicine discipline.
• Community Services – For Albertans struggling to provide proper and adequate food for their pets, we operate a food bank program where food, bedding and other supplies can be provided. We provide free behavioural support through our Behaviour Helpline to anyone experiencing a pet related issue. For renters at risk of loosing their housing due to a pet related issue, we run a Pets & Renters program where consults are offered at no cost.
• Behaviour Training - we offer positive reinforcement-based training classes and consultations for basic obedience, puppy socialization and specialize in complex behaviours such as reactivity, fearfulness, resources guarding and separation anxiety. We believe that everyone should have access to affordable training and work with a variety of household budgets.

Calgary Humane Society engages with over 700 Volunteers and 1,000 Foster Parents. We strive to lead the way and continue to set standards of excellence for the humane treatment of animals across a broad spectrum of human/animal interactions, thus fostering a community where all lives are respected and treated with compassion. The breadth of our programming is wide and all encompassing in an effort to provide the highest levels of community service to the city of Calgary and surrounding areas.
