Grant County Animal Shelter Asks For Donations To Stay Open

The Grant County Animal Shelter needs help in order to save themselves from being forced to close.

Officials at the Grant County Humane Society, a no-kill animal shelter in west-central Minnesota, say they’re facing financial difficulties and urgently need support to remain operational.

They say the shelter’s medical and operating costs have risen due to the growing number of animals it has taken in at the Elbow Lake shelter. Although a fundraising campaign in 2022 helped to keep the shelter open, the funds from the Humane Society’s reserve are depleting rapidly.
