Humane Society of NE Iowa launches public phase of facility fund drive

Posted: Tue, Aug 27, 2013 7:25 PM

The Humane Society of Northeast Iowa is kicking off the public phase of the "Help Us Help Them" Adoption Center Capital Campaign.

Nearly $445,000 has been raised in the private phase of the fund drive.  HSNEI is now asking the public for contributions to allow the organization to reach its campaign goal of $600,000.

Donors can contribute to HSNEI's Capital Campaign by naming part of the shelter, having a brick engraved, or adding a name to the donor wall.   Naming opportunities start at $250 with engraved bricks. One time and three-year pledges are available. Donations are made through the Winneshiek County Community Foundation.  Details are available at "Help Us Help Them" at www.hsnei.org/capital-campaign
.
Construction will begin on the HSNEI Adoption Center build in the spring of 2014, using three acres of land owned by HSNEI on Millenium Road in Decorah. The 4,700 square foot facility will allow HSNEI to care for up to 100 animals at a time until they find their forever homes. Volunteers from surrounding communities will have the opportunity to interact with dogs and cats.
