National Humane Alliance Fountains

Check out the National Humane Alliance Facebook Page

The following is an incomplete and uncertified listing of National Humane Alliance fountains and their locations. However, it is probably the most detailed and accurate listing ever compiled. We are constantly updating this page and the interactive Google map with new data and pictures. As of 9/1/2022, we have identified approximately 150 of the fountains. Much of the early data was provided by the Newberry Library in Chicago and augmented by further research including pictures and information from many contributors. We do not have pictures or information on all of them. In many cases we have both pictures and information, but sometimes we only have a picture while at other times we have information but no picture. Some are not listed here as we do not have enough information to justify a listing as yet though we continue to work on it. If you have anything to add or comment on please click here to send us an e-mail. You can also interact with us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/NHAfountains.

 

Here is an interactive Google map showing the locations of the fountains, pictures, stories and the year that they were received. Click on the markers for each location for complete information.
