New Transport Vehicle Makes Maiden Voyage Humane Animal Rescue made the first of many local and regional transfers of animals from over-crowded shelters and recue groups to Pittsburgh. The first official use of a new animal transport van, which was funded through private donations, were from two shelters in West Virginia. The new Relocation Team, lead by Carla Prince and Sarah Shively, have relocated hundreds of homeless animals to Pittsburgh from overcrowded shelters throughout the eastern half of the US with the help of the ASPCA and about a dozen local and regional partners. However, Thursday marks the first such transfer of this size where the transporting of animals was done solely by HAR staff and volunteers. Ultimately, 29 animals were relocated to Pittsburgh through the Humane Animal Rescue’s open doors! Humane Animal Rescue's CEO Dan Rossi and Board Director Gerry Delon were present at the Northside Shelter for the animals’ arrival; “We are all very excited about this new development in our organization” said Dan Rossi, “Humane Animal Rescue has grown to become one of the largest animal welfare agencies in the region, and now we have the reach to make a real difference in the lives of animals all across the tri-state region.” This venture was made possible through generous donations and support from the Pittsburgh community. Humane Animal Rescue is taking part in the Fund the Shelters challenge through May 9, a friendly nationwide contest among hundreds of organizations to raise the most funds and to celebrate Clear the Shelters day this Summer. Humane Animal Rescue is holding in the top 10, but we need your help to stay in the lead and win the competition! Click Here to donate now and help Humane Animal Rescue stay in the top 6!
