A pet adoption and donation initiative has begun in the area. The campaign, which is in its 12th year, aims to find homes for pets in shelters. It will run through the end of August.

The donation part of the initiative started on July 15 and will continue until September 15. Last year's campaign resulted in a significant number of adoptions and donations for participating shelters. Further details about the initiative, including how to get involved, are available from the source.

Local residents can learn more about the campaign and find out how they can participate in helping to clear the shelters.
