A fundraiser this weekend will seek support for the Humane Society/SPCA of Sumter County.
The event will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday at the Wal-Mart at the Buffalo Ridge shopping plaza in The Villages.
HS/SPCA volunteers will distribute their current “Wish List” providing supporters an idea of what supplies are typically needed in the daily care of the rescued animals.
Volunteers will be gratefully accepting donations of pet food, supplies and gift cards from the community. The HS/SPCA will also have adoptable animals for prospective forever families to meet a potential new Valentine of their own. The HS/SPCA of Sumter does not do “same day” adoptions but interested parties will have the opportunity to complete applications for a pet that pulls at their heartstrings. Kennel Manager, Carol Legrand commented “we have so many sweethearts ready to find their own family. Plus we are sure we can help you find your very own ‘soul mutt’ this Valentine’s!”
