'Doggie Party' to Benefit the Humane Society - May 15, 2008
PITTSFIELD - A "Doggie Party" will be held Sunday, May 18, from 10 to 2 at Knesset Israel Synagogue, 16 Colt Road, to benefit the Berkshire Humane Society.
There will be games for all and prizes awarded and donations for the animal shelter will be accepted. Dogs are, of course, welcome to attend.
A representative of the Berkshire Humane Society will be on hand with information about the various programs at BHS supported by community efforts like this one.
For more information call Raphaela Kramer at 413-499-7767.
The Berkshire Humane Society has been helping animals and people since 1992; it offers free educational visits and tours for area schoolchildren, a community pet-food bank for economically distressed pet owners, and works in cooperation with the Elizabeth Freeman Center to provide foster care assistance for the pets of women in crisis.
BHS receives no public funding and relies on memberships and donations to continue to help animals and people. In 2007, BHS placed 784 homeless animals into loving forever homes. The shelter is open Tuesday - Saturday 10 to 4, Thursday evenings 5 to 8, and Sundays 1 to 4. The shelter closes at noon on the last Wednesday of each month for staff meetings. For more information, 413-447-7878 or www.berkshirehumane.org. |
