The Events & Fundraising team works together to raise money to support MHS. Founded in 1893, the Meriden Humane Society is a non-profit, no kill animal shelter and rescue facility. Many of our animals are taken from high risk situations such as high kill pounds, cruelty investigations, and from private citizens who are no longer able to care for their animal.
Our organization is privately run and operated. We are supported by patrons and residents who donate to our facility. Contrary to popular belief, we are not affiliated with the Connecticut Humane Society. Without the help we receive from the citizens of our community and surrounding communities, we would not be able to save all the animals that we do.
By joining the Events & Fundraising team, you would sign up to assist other volunteers and Board Members at different events MHS participates in. This team meets once a month in the evenings in Wallingford.
