GAINESVILLE – With construction of the Alachua County Humane Society’s (ACHS) new facility well underway, one may think funding for this new project has been met. While the ACHS has already received great support from the community, continued funding is necessary for completion of the new facility. In an effort to help the Humane Society reach its 2 million dollar goal, a very generous supporter has offered a challenge grant to match donations up to $50,000.
The Humane Society currently rescues, on average, 1,000 animals per year. With completion of the 30,000 square foot facility the ACHS hopes to double this figure. A different approach to animal rescue will be taken that is more community based and celebrates the ACHS’s new slogan; “A new life Awaits You.” Rescued Animals will have premium kenneling and medical facilities. Programs such as grief counseling and obedience training will be offered. The new design will aid in keeping the animals less stressed, with state of the art living facilities, and an increase in the animal’s overall happiness.
Make a difference and help the Humane Society reach their goals with a donation of any amount. Donations of $500 or more will include naming rights of a kennel and $10,000 or more allows the donator to name a room in the new facility. There are also many corporate sponsorships opportunities that will not only help the Humane Society but also help promote your business. For more information contact Kirk Eppenstein, ACHS Executive Director, at 352-373-5855 or keppenstein@alachuahumane.org.
