An Expansion Project for Pets and People
Heritage Humane Society is committed to improving the lives of pets through adoption, education, and community outreach. As community demands have grown over the years, we have been increasingly constrained in our ability to help due to the inadequacies of our existing facility.
The time has come for Heritage Humane Society to expand and update our facility, and we need your help to get there!
Our Current Facility
As you can see from the pictures, our existing facility is outdated and presents significant limitations. For us to continue to provide high-quality care and service to pets and community members, it is imperative that we expand!
What Are We Expanding?
In the coming months, we are expanding our facility in the following ways:
2,550 square feet added to the front of the adoption facility
A new multipurpose room that will allow training, humane education, meetings, birthday parties, and more
16 new parking spaces
2 outdoor dog play yards
Dedicated space for our community outreach program – Kibble Kitchen
New offices for staff members
Employee & volunteer breakroom
2 pet feature rooms in the lobby for special pet residents that need more attention
New dog activity room and dog viewing room
Lobby renovation with an open design
2 new restroom, a water fountain, and water bottle refill station
Goal Amount: $1,800,000
