"I am proud of how Mayhew have responded by finding new ways to support animals and people in these uncertain times," the duchess wrote.
She remarked on the charity's efforts to provide veterinary services to pets in the homeless community and other at-risk groups including nursing homes.
"I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of the volunteers, staff and students at Mayhew," she continued. "As an expression of my own commitment, I renewed my sponsorship of a dog kennel in the name of our son, Archie, to create an interim home for a pet in need."
