The Churchill Animal Protection Society is celebrating 40 years of serving homeless animals in Churchill County with a fundraising campaign to support the shelter's daily operations and future rescue efforts.
The organization's "$40 for 40" campaign encourages community members to donate $40 in honor of the shelter's 40 years of service. Donations will help provide food, medical care, shelter supplies, enrichment items, and daily care for dogs and cats awaiting adoption.
"Every $40 donation honors four decades of local rescue work and helps keep the doors open for the next animal who needs a safe place to land," the organization announced on its fundraising page.
Founded in 1986, CAPS was established by a group of local residents who recognized the need for a safe haven for homeless animals in Churchill County.
With support from community volunteers, local businesses, and personnel from Naval Air Station Fallon, the organization developed into a no-kill shelter dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming abandoned and surrendered pets.
Today, CAPS continues its mission to care for homeless animals, promote responsible pet ownership, and help families keep their pets whenever possible.
The shelter says it has remained committed to its no-kill philosophy throughout its 40-year history and relies heavily on community support to continue its work.
Donations to the "$40 for 40" campaign can be made through capsnevada.org or the organization's Facebook page. For more information, contact CAPS at 775-423-7500 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday.
Additional information about CAPS and its programs is available through the organization's website and social media pages.
