Main article image for story titled 'Heather Kash, West Suburban Humane Society'Heather Kash, Director of Development, West Suburban Humane Society spoke at our Tuesday meeting this week. Heather spoke about their operations and how they match 500+ dogs and cats every year. 450 volunteers and 100 foster homes make it possible to deliver their mission:  to work towards the day when all dogs and cats are loved and cared for, and pet owners have access to essential resources so they may enjoy a fulfilling relationship with their pets. You can support their mission by volunteering, making a donation, shopping at their annual Plant Sale on May 12-13, or by sponsoring or participating in their Golf outing or Bark-a-Palooza RescueFest and 5K.
