30th Birthday Bash

VHS_email_banner_576x375

Thursday, September 21, 2017
5-8 pm

Come party like an animal at Valley  Humane Society’s 30th Birthday Bash! We’re celebrating 30 years of saving and enriching the lives of pets and people in the community. Everyone is invited to join the festivities and enjoy cake, refreshments and various activities to mark the occasion with a furry fun time!

Valley Humane Society was initially formed as a private surrender resource for pet guardians who needed to relinquish their animals but didn’t want to place them at risk of being euthanized in a high-volume public shelter. In the three decades since, the organization has consistently worked at saving and enriching lives, with numerous evolving programs that strengthen the bond between people and pets.

Thousands of animals have received direct assistance from Valley Humane Society over the years. Generations of children have learned humane compassion, and countless local residents have had their lives touched by the unconditional acceptance of a Canine Comfort Pet -Assisted Therapy visit. Annually, more than 120,000 meals are distributed through the AniMeals pet food pantry to pet guardians struggling to care for their beloved animals.

Want to help? Make a donation to help continue our lifesaving work for another 30 years! (We’re suggesting $1 for each year.) Make your $30 for 30 donation today!

Catch her drift at Valley Humane Society, 3670 Nevada Street in Pleasanton, Tuesday through Saturday from 10 am – 4 pm. For more info on Ash  call (925) 426-8656, and join us online May 4, 2017 for #EastBayGives and help the animals: eastbaygives.org/valleyhumane
