The Oxford-Lafayette Humane Society is planning on breaking ground for their new facility on May 1, 2010. With the help of the people in Oxford, Mississippi, who attend the events put on by the humane society, they are giving these abandoned or surrendered animals an even better temporary home.
The humane society puts on events such as Yappy Hour, Whiskers and Wine, Paws for art, Barktoberfest, and Strut Your Mutt. OLHS also plans to have a groundbreaking ceremony called Woofstock, where pet owners can come and listen to music and celebrate the opening of the new building.
Although OLHS has just reached the amount they need to get started, they are looking forward to an estimated date of completion in the next eight months to a year. OLHS will also continue to take donations even after they complete their new establishment.
The humane society also has a facebook page. They use facebook to post pictures from the events and let friends know when and how to become a part of their fundraisers.
