THE POWER OF 1


UPDATE - February 20th, 2010: The City of Leitchfield, KY has now kindly offered to match all funds raised in "The Power Of 1" campaign. Any donation you make will literally go twice as far to help us pay down our vet bill. As the next City Council meeting is scheduled for Monday, March 15th, all donations must be received by then to count for the matching funds. We can't thank the city (or each or you) enough for helping us with this critical and truly life-saving fundraiser.
 
Grayson County Humane Society's vet bills are over $7,000! Recently, there have been many dogs and cats surrendered to the shelter that could not make it without medical treatment. We need help. We receive no county, state, or federal funding to assist with our bills. We are dependent on those who share our mission and believe in what we do. We believe that every pet that enters our doors deserves love and care, regardless of their physical condition. We work hard to get them on their way to becoming healthy, happy, and headed for their forever homes.

The number of our friends on Myspace is now almost 1,000 and the fans on Facebook now number over 3,000. If each fan or member donated at least $1.00, we could pay off over half of our vet bill. If each of you found just 1 other person to donate at least $1.00, we could pay off the entire vet bill AND if that 1 person found just 1 other person to donate at least $1.00, we could pay off the vet bill AND start a fund for future vet bills.

Can you imagine?!? With just 1 dollar per person?!? There is strength in numbers and, with numbers, mountains can be moved and vet bills can be paid. Please help us by participating. Will you join us in making a difference?

Please donate in whatever manner works best for you. You can either use the Paypal "buttons" that are found here on our main website (on the left side menu of each page), via the Grayson Facebook Cause donation page at http://apps.facebook.com/causes/356568 (the minimum donation allowed there will be $10), or you can simply mail your donation to the shelter at: Grayson County Humane Society/SPCA, 213 William Thomason Byway, Leitchfield, KY 42754.

Thank you!

  Bentley - TWO YEARS LATER - sponsored
Update February, 2010: Sadly, Bentley is once again available for adoption. The lady that adopted him late last year had to return him to the shelter due to her current living conditions. It had NOTHING to do with Bentley. We'll be working on getting updated photos and videos of him, as well as...read more about Bentley - TWO YEARS LATER - sponsored

Hi, my name is Second, a male tabby kittycat (short coat), about seven years old. The volunteer (I call her "the angel of Second Street") saw me walking along the road like I was on a death march, and I really was on my last legs. I couldn't remember when I'd had my last meal and I thought, sheesh...read more about Second-sponsored

PLEASE, if you rescue or are thinking about adopting, consider rescuing or adopting our pets. While we do not have a specific kill date, when we are full, we have to euthanize. When we are not full, we do our best to love and care for each pet with all of our abilities.

However, our work force is too small for the number of pets we currently care for. Our shelter is full and when we look at these trusting faces we know the end is near for many of them.

Our shelter pets have been treated for whatever may have ailed them. They have been spayed or neutered. Some, sadly, have spent much more of their lives here than they have ever spent anywhere else. We can tell you about each and every one of them. Please just ask. 

They are our friends and they desperately need adopters or rescue. Our area simply does not have many adopters. Please consider offering a safe place to one of them today.
