The places we're here for
Everyone on this page is someone we plan to help. They never give us money. The people and businesses who give are thanked on the Thank-you wall.
Shelter staff, care-home recreation teams, teachers, vets, therapy-dog handlers. You've been doing this work for years with too little help. We started Shiba Humanity Hub to be some of that help: to stand behind you, not in front of you.
The help we're building
All of this stays Planned until rails are live.
| For | What help looks like | Programs |
|---|---|---|
| Animal shelters & rescues | Vet bills and food paid directly. Transport for long-shot dogs. A place in Beautiful Souls when live feeds exist. | Global K9 · Beautiful Souls |
| Family-support programs | Food, school supplies and steady help for children and families in hard seasons. | Seed programs |
| Schools & classrooms | Quiet support for stretched families. Christmas for kids who'd go without. | Orphan Christmas |
| Healers & therapy-dog teams | Gas, insurance, supplies and evaluation fees covered so they can say yes more often. | Healing Hearts |
| Community groups | Small, receipted grants for food, warmth and belonging. | Seed programs |
What it costs you
Nothing. You'll never be asked for money, a sponsorship, a fee, a donation or a promotion. Not now, not later.
What we'll ask for (to help well)
- One named contact and an honest list of what would help.
- Receipts or invoices for what we pay, so donors can see where gifts went.
- A short note now and then on how it's going, with no personal details.
- Consent, under your own policies, before any story or photo. Saying no never affects the help.
What we'll never ask: money, sponsorship, a logo as a condition of help, that you hold, buy, promote or mention $NIBBLES or $hopeseed, or any resident, student, client or adopter data.
How it works
- Ask for help or nominate a place below. The founder reads every one. Forms are Live (capture only).
- A short call about what a hard week looks like and what would actually help.
- Checks both ways. You can check our incorporation, CRA status, contracts and whitepaper.
- A one-page letter of intent to receive help. Naming you publicly is a separate, optional yes. In progress
- A support agreement once rails are live. Planned
- First help delivered, paid directly, with a public receipt (your name only if you've said yes). Planned
How we choose who we help
We look for a legal entity in good standing, a confirmed signing authority, and agreement that help is never tied to promotion. Once we're registered, CRA rules govern where charitable funds can go. Counsel will confirm the structure before the first dollar moves.
Detailed criteria for shelters, rescues, schools and family programs live in our internal register. Concerns about a listing? Contact us.
Honest empty state
Ask us for help
This is a request for help, not an application to give. It costs nothing and doesn't put your name anywhere public. We can't fund anyone until our charity rails are live. Privacy
Nominate a place you love
We'll reach out to them quietly and won't mention you unless you'd like us to. Nominating doesn't commit them, or you, to anything.
