About Us
Our
STORY
Elizabeth Morris began housing and caring for animals in Philadelphia in 1858. Since then, the small but mighty team at Morris Animal Refuge has been caring for homeless animals in need in the Philadelphia region as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization.
Morris Animal Refuge is a 501c3 organization that provides care for a wide range of animals, from those ready for placement in a new home to those exhibiting behavioral or medical issues that aren’t able to immediately be placed. We are dedicated to helping find a positive and humane outcome for every animal that comes to us in need, reducing unnecessary euthanasia, and ensuring that every animal that enters our care is given a chance at a loving home. Our hard work has paid off – and today we are happy to report that we have a 98% Save Rate!
