Humane Society announces large donation for spay and neuter clinic

Published

on

The Humane Society of Warren County has received a donation in the amount of $60,000 from Linda R. Lorber for the opening and operating of a new low-cost, high quality spay and neuter clinic in Front Royal, Virginia.

Linda R. Lorber lived in Front Royal from 2004 until 2012, but still has many ties throughout the Valley. Linda has had many dogs and cats through the years, and was fortunate enough to be in a position to get them proper veterinary care.

Many families locally are not able to afford proper veterinary care, and the Humane Society of Warren County’s undertaking aims to make spay and neuter surgeries and vaccines more accessible.

With plans to open the clinic in the summer of 2021, the HSWC Spay Clinic – Linda R. Lorber Campus will offer services to local and regional pet owners, as well as rescue and community cat groups.

“Our goal is to improve the lives of animals, and our vision is to live in a community where every pet is a wanted pet.” Says Executive Director, Meghan Bowers.  She explains that the first step towards this vision is to prevent unwanted litters.
