Saturday afternoon a group of
people dedicated to helping those who cannot help themselves
celebrated the grand opening of the Humane Society of Logan County
shelter. While the shelter has been open for a while, this day
the group enjoyed a chamber ribbon-cut, offered free food to
guests and opened their doors for everyone to take a tour of the
outstanding facility.
Major funding for this project has come from $200,000 from the
charitable trust created under the last will and testament of Ethel
D. Hoelscher, and the property at 1801 E. Lincoln Parkway
was given by the Gene Burwell family. An additional $200,000 was
raised through fundraisers, memorials and donations. The additional
$200,000 would not have been possible without the generous support
of the citizens of Logan County and the thousands of hours that have
been logged by the committed volunteers of the organization.
