At American Pest Solutions, being a family-owned business means more than providing reliable pest solutions— it means showing up for the community we’re proud to call home. That’s why we were honored to recently donate essential food and supplies to the Dakin Humane Society in Springfield, MA, who works tirelessly to care for, protect, and rehome animals in need throughout the Pioneer Valley. Supporting this work felt like a natural extension of our values: protecting quality of life, caring for families, and doing what we can to help a wonderful organization continue its mission.
What Is the Dakin Humane Society?
Dakin is a community-supported, animal welfare organization that provides care to more than 20,000 animals every year. As a nationally recognized leader, Dakin plays a vital role in our community, providing safe spaces, medical care, nourishment, and love to animals who may have experienced neglect, loss, or uncertainty. Since 1969, they have made it their mission to deliver effective, innovative services that not only improve the lives of animals in need, but also the lives of the individuals and families who are caring for them.
Why This Matters to Us
When we support organizations like the Dakin Humane Society, we’re investing in compassion, responsibility, and the overall well-being of the community— both two-legged and four-legged alike. Many members of the American Pest Solutions team are pet owners and shelter parents ourselves, so this cause is close to our hearts. Seeing firsthand the dedication and kindness of the staff and volunteers reminds us just how important community support truly is. A huge thank you to the Dakin Humane Society for all of the incredible work they do every day!
“As an animal lover, I find it especially meaningful to give back in this way. Dakin’s commitment to supporting animals in our community is truly impactful, and I am proud to support their mission,” said Jordan Russell, fifth-generation member of American Pest Solutions.
Make a Donation Today
Since Dakin does not receive any government funding or support from larger organizations, they rely solely on contributions from individuals who care about animals to bring their services to the community. No donation is ever too small.
If you are looking for a meaningful way to give back to Dakin and help make a difference, they are always in need of community support – especially during the winter months.
