WHO & WHAT WE ARE ....
Founded in 1987. The Humane Society of Livingston County
(HSLC) is currently providing rescues, foster care, and adoptions for dogs
and cats (excluding feral). The HSLC has also prevented the over population
of animals through their Spay/Neuter Program. We are not funded by our
County, and not part of Dog Control, so we have to rely on grants,
donations, and fund-raisers to obtain money for our cause. Our membership
has doubled in the first quarter of 2004, from 64 to 127 members. All of
our volunteers consists of caring, dedicated
individuals who desire your support and assistance in helping animals who
are in need of loving homes. We are seeking donations to continue to
develop our capabilities as a Humane Society, including a future
spay/neuter clinic, a shelter, and community awareness programs.
Our Humane Society is hoping to build a new future and
with your help we can accomplish this goal.
