The state-of-the-art facility, which represents a significant investment of $7.5 million, is designed to provide engaging and educational experiences for children and families in the community.
The campus aims to foster a deeper understanding of animal welfare and the importance of humane treatment.

This initiative reflects the center's ongoing commitment to educating the next generation about the responsibilities that come with pet ownership and the importance of kindness towards all living beings. The opening of the Sharron Lee MacDonald Humane Education Campus marks an exciting new chapter for the center and its mission to inspire compassion in young minds.
