David Spade has donated $10,000 to save the Humane Society of the White Mountains in his mother's town of Lakeside, Arizona, a source tells Usmagazine.com.

"The shelter was falling apart, and they were going to shut it down, so he stepped in," says the source. "It was far and above what they needed and ever received."

The 44-year-old comic — who also grew up in Arizona — has opened his wallet for his home state before.

Last year, he donated $25,000 to the family of an Arizona police officer who was shot to death.

"It just struck me as such a rough situation just because cops in general get kind of a bad rap lately and people forget it is the scariest job out there," he said. "I'm from Arizona so I'm always a little aware of things that are going on there."

He also has given 15,000 to his alma mater, Saguaro High School.
