Portland, February 28th, 2014. Some furry friends were featured at Portland’s Yard, Garden and Patio Show at the Oregon Convention Center. Their VIP appearance raised awareness about the Oregon Humane Society. The Yard and Garden Show attracted over 20,000 people. The three-day event featured showcase gardens and workshops including ideas focused on sustainability. Those at the VIP event included: Mary Lou See, an OHS volunteer; Jane Morrison, the OHS Corporate Relations Manager; Jane Harris, OHS Donor Relations Manager; Akin Blitz, OHS Board of Trustees member; and Jenni Nowak, a OHS volunteer.
From the Oregon Humane Society:
For 145 years OHS has been sheltering abandoned animals, fighting cruelty and neglect, and working to build a caring, compassionate community here in Oregon. Although we have thousands of members and 1,500 volunteers, we are really nothing more than a single person saying ‘Yes, I want to help.’
Here, you can learn how to adopt a pet, report animal cruelty, lend a helping hand to animals, and much more. OHS is not affiliated with any other local or national organization and receives no tax dollars; our work is made possible only by the generosity of people like yourself.
