Time is running out to become informed about the management of the Humane Society Thrift Store, which helps support the animal shelter.

So many volunteers and paid staff have given years of hard work and effort to provide not only money for the shelter and care for the animals, but also a pleasant shopping experience for the public.

Unfortunately, the former paid staff and volunteers are no longer there. Customers are complaining about the phone not being answered, poor customer service and inferior merchandise. Volunteers who used to bring their donations to the thrift store are now taking them to other thrift shops. Word has been spreading around about the drastic changes in the LPCHS thrift store, and most of those words aren’t good.

If you’re a member of the Humane Society, please mark your calendar for May 9 to be present at the annual meeting, and let your voice be heard.
