Dear Friend of the Humane Society of Elmore County,
We would like to invite you to be a member of our society. As Elmore County
grows, the need
for our shelter and its ability to assist with lost, abandoned and unwanted pets
also grows.
Becoming a member of our Society helps us further demonstrate that concern for
pet
overpopulation and responsible pet ownership goes beyond our shelter facility.
As a non-profit
(501c3) organization, your membership also helps us care for the over 5,000
animals that come
through our doors each year. Your membership also gives you a vote at the Annual
Meeting to
elect new Board Members who oversee the shelter’s mission and operation.
So what does it cost to join our family? A Family
Membership costs $15.00/year and an
Individual Membership is only $10.00/ year. New memberships are welcome at any
time of the
year though to help our small staff better manage member renewals we will then
send out
subsequent renewal notices for a January to December annual membership cycle.
Our shelter is an open admission shelter which means we
never turn away an animal in need
(bite cases are the only exception to this in accordance with Alabama law). We
are also a
mandatory spay/neuter shelter so that we can do our part to help stem the crisis
of pet
overpopulation. On a daily basis we care for injured and sick animals, and are
wonderfully
supported by the tri-county area veterinarians who help us promote good health
and responsible
pet ownership. We welcome any person to come visit our shelter, meet our staff
and see how we
care for all of our animals.
The Humane Society of Elmore County provides a valuable
service to the citizens of Elmore
County and our small, but dedicated staff works hard every day to help animals
in need. Please
join us today to help us continue our mission to ensure the best possible
quality of life for
animals, to prevent cruelty to animals, to stop pet overpopulation, to strive
for the humane care,
treatment, and well-being of all animals through education and information, and
to promote
public health and safety in regards to human and animal interaction.
Thank you for your support,
Rea D. Cord
Director
Humane Society of Elmore County
