The Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe Hosting Donation Drive and Adoption Event on May 4
The Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe is hosting a donation drive and adoption event on Tuesday, May 4 in honor of “Star Wars Day.” With numerous adoptable pets and $30,000 in matching funds, “May the 4th” is sure to be out of this world!
The Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe (HSTT) is thrilled to be hosting a donation drive and adoption event Tuesday, May 4 in honor of “Star Wars Day.” There will be $30,000 available to match donations, meaning that the generosity of the community will go twice as far to help animals in need.
In celebration of “May the 4th” HSTT will also feature some cosmically cute kittens and out-of-this-world adorable dogs for adoption. Applications to adopt will be available on Tues., May 4 starting at 9 a.m. Accepted applicants will need to be available to pick up their new pet on Tue., May 4th or Wed., May 5. For more information, email givingtuesday@hstt.org or visit HSTT’s website.
“Because this Giving Tuesday type campaign is not a national day of giving, HSTT needs the community’s help more than ever to spread awareness of our “May the Fourth” adoptable pets event and our $30,000 in matching funds,” said Dale Lawrence, Development & Marketing Director for HSTT.
About the Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe: The Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe was founded in 1994 by a group of volunteers. Shortly after its establishment, the Humane Society and the Town of Truckee became partners and together have become the driving force of animal welfare in their region through rescue, protection and adoption. The partnership has continued to grow over the past two decades, solidifying a long-standing relationship in September of 2013 by opening the region’s first public animal shelter. This facility, located at 10961 Stevens Lane in Truckee, maximizes efficiency and effectiveness by housing the public and private entities under the same roof. The opening of a second location at 3438 Lake Tahoe Blvd. in South Lake Tahoe has enabled the agency to service the entire Lake Tahoe region.
The Humane Society of Truckee-Tahoe is saving 100 percent of the community's adoptable homeless pets. In addition, they rescue animals from overcrowded shelters whenever space allows.
