HSCO urges C. Oregonians to help homeless animals at holidays
During this season of giving, remember the homeless, abused and neglected animals in our community. The Humane Society of Central Oregon wants to bring holiday cheer to the homeless animals by inviting the community to an open house on Saturday, Dec. 22 from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm.
Refreshments and goodies will be served for people and their pets. This is the perfect opportunity to visit the shelter for the first time or learn how you can help the animals by volunteering your time or talents.
There are holiday opportunities to help the 3,000 animals cared for by the Humane Society of Central Oregon each year.
Humane Society Wish Trees: Wish Trees are the Humane Society of Central Oregon’s annual drive for donations to meet the needs of 3,000 animals cared for each year. Visit one of HSCO’s wish trees and choose an ornament which lists an item that is needed. The Wish Trees can be found at:
