Description

In this episode, we dive into the world of animal welfare with a special focus on the Humane Society of Summit County, Akron, Ohio. Join Alice and Janet as they recount Alice's recent visit to the newly constructed $10 million facility—a state-of-the-art haven designed with meticulous care to address the health and safety needs of the animals it houses. From advanced air exchange systems to thoughtful design elements, Alice sheds light on the often-overlooked complexities of building such a facility.




We're also thrilled to welcome Louise DeLillo, the Director of Capital Campaign and Major Gifts for the Humane Society of Summit County. Louise shares the incredible journey behind the construction of this new facility, including the challenges and triumphs of fundraising to meet the $10 million goal—an impressive feat largely achieved through community donations. She explains the strategic planning that went into creating a space that not only meets the current needs of the animals but also anticipates future growth, all while keeping the community's support at the forefront.




But that's not all—Alice and Janet discuss the Humane Society’s many offerings, from their mobile unit to the annual Pawsibility Ball, a family favorite that doubles as a reunion and a major fundraising event. Plus, they give a shout out to the Happy Tales Humane Society Thrift Shop, a must-visit spot for anyone looking to support the cause.




Whether you're an animal lover, a supporter of community-driven initiatives, or just curious about the behind-the-scenes efforts that make such projects possible, this episode has something for you. Tune in to hear more about the incredible work being done to give animals in Summit County a second chance at life.
