The Helping Paws Story

  • Fox Valley Helping Paws Animal Welfare
    Association, a non-profit 501 (c) 3 organization,
    established a foster program in 1969 which rehomed orphaned animals into permanent,
    loving homes. Helping Paws incorporated as
    the first no-kill animal welfare association in
    McHenry County in 1971. The foster program
    outgrew its first facility and in 1995, Helping
    Paws moved to a new facility in Ridgefield.
    This facility, however, only had room to house
    cats. So, in 1998, Helping Paws again moved to
    a larger facility in Crystal Lake. The shelter's
    success in saving abandoned animals in
    McHenry County quickly outgrew the Crystal
    Lake facility, and in 2006, Helping Paws moved
    to a much larger facility with room for many
    more animals.
