The Humane Society of West Michigan would like to improve access to its HELP program for low/no income pet owners who cannot afford emergent care for their animals, and speed recovery and adoption for sick animals surrendered each year. The project entails remodeling a room where animals can stay, providing better care for those animals in more appropriately sized housing. A remodeled space would allow staff to clean and work in the area more efficiently, and reduced traffic for sick animals will shorten recovery times.
