Donations would benefit all animals at no-kill shelter; dues range from $35-$500

(Jan. 18, 2018) The Worcester County Humane Society is seeking animal lovers to join in making a difference in the community. During the start of every year, the shelter launches its membership drive and the funds raised enable the shelter to continue serving animals in the community.

Membership donations directly benefit all of the animals that come into the no-kill shelter.

Individual Membership Levels are:

Bronze: $35 (basic membership)

Silver: $100 (helps to spay/neuter up to one dog)

Gold: $250 (helps to spay/neuter up to five cats)

Platinum: $500 or above (helps to spay or neuter 10 shelter cats, 10 feral cats or four dogs)

Membership runs from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31. Members will receive updates about the shelter and upcoming events through email. Membership forms are available at www.worcestercountyhumanesociety.org. Make checks payable to Worcester County Humane Society and mail payment and form to P.O. Box 48, Berlin, Maryland 21811 or drop off at the shelter.

Caring for ever increasing numbers of animals puts a tremendous burden on the staff, facility and limited resources. Every donation is critical to carry out the shelter’s mission to advocate for animal welfare and to provide compassionate care and protection for all cats and dogs that find their way to the shelter.

The Worcester County Humane Society is a private, nonprofit, no-kill animal shelter that currently houses nearly 150 cats and 25 dogs.
