MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN OUR COMMUNITY WITH OUR PROGRAMS

Compassionate Caregivers Compassionate caregivers are very special supporters of our shelter. This program is Berkshire Humane Society’s monthly sustained giving option. When you join this program, you help support the work happening all day, every day. From food and bedding to toys and treats, your monthly donations fund our efforts to shelter and care for the homeless and displaced animals of the Berkshires and beyond, giving them a second chance at a happy ending. On average, an animal spends a month waiting for a new home. Sign-up is easy. You can fill out the online form at www.berkshirehumane.org, or you may call (413) 447-7878 ext.131 and we’ll assist you over the phone. We will safely and conveniently charge your credit card each month for any amount you choose. Change this amount or update your information at any time by calling or emailing us. Our email is dbriggs@ berkshirehumane.org.

This monthly, sustained giving is extremely important because it supports our work throughout the entire year. When you give, you make so much possible. Give for a year, and you support…

• $25 a month ~ Annually, $300 covers exams & vaccines for 12 animals. • $35 a month ~ Annually, $420 covers 1 scholarship and 1 guest speaker for Camp Humane. • $50 a month ~ Annually, $600 spays/ neuters 12 animals or covers medical costs for 3 SafePet animals. • Other ~ Every single dollar saves lives! Berkshire Humane Society is a private, 501(c)3 non-profit open-admission animal shelter, and we receive no state or federal funding. We are entirely dependent on the generosity of our supporters. Donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed under the law.

Casper, the friendly cat, is a 15-year-old black and white male shorthair domestic cat. He and five other cats came to Berkshire Humane Society due to the failing health of their owner. He is a sweet old gentleman who has some mobility issues, so is on a joint supplement to help him get around. Casper gets along with other respectful cats. He is affectionate, but can get overstimulated and “love nip,” so a quiet home with adults or older children would be best. Casper qualifies for a senior discount.
