SPONSOR A PEN PROGRAM - For the armchair activist, those living in far off areas and for those who just want to help in some way, the Sponsor a Pen program is a plan that can help the dogs and cats at the shelter in a big way. The Elk County Humane Society will clean the pens and take care of the future someone's pet. The sponsor has no responsibilities to the pen except to pay the sponsoring fee and enjoy the benefits of knowing the pen will be a clean safe home until the pet enters their new permanent home. The sponsor's name will be honored on a dog or cat pen of your choice in the shelter. You can stop by the shelter and fill out an application or send the sponsoring fee with the name you want on the animal pen to the Elk County Humane Society, 1029 E. Eschbach Road, St. Marys, PA 15857. The cost is $20.00 a month or $200.00 for the entire year. Please note that you wish your donation to go toward the Sponsor A Pen Program. |
