Humane Fort Wayne has moved to its fur-ever home, to help even more pets find theirs! The organization celebrated the grand opening of its new state-of-the-art facility at 901 Leesburg Road this past weekend, a project made possible by the generosity of our community. Key features of the new facility include: • Increased capacity for animals, with twice as many dog kennels and three times as many cat kennels as their old space to help more animals and ensure they're comfortable. • A community education area to help people in our community learn about what the organization does and share best practices with shelter partners from around the region. • Improved indoor and outdoor spaces designed for pets and people alike! Dog kennels have indoor and outdoor areas, and cat colonies feature large windows that give them outside views. Indoor training and outdoor play areas are also available for shelter dogs. All clinic services will now be under one roof, creating greater capacity to deliver compassionate care. Humane Fort Wayne is moving in phases, so be sure to plan your visit at HumaneFW.org. Animals will be available for adoption at the Hanna Street location through Sunday, August 25th. Animals will move in and be available for adoption at the Leesburg Road Location on Tuesday, September 3rd! Thank you, Humane Fort Wayne, for caring for our community's pets—and the people who love them!

Have you secured your spot yet? Don’t miss out on a great conversation with our President and CEO, Sarah Strimmenos, at MKM’s Fishbowl on August 22nd! Doors open at 3:15pm, and Sarah will be sharing insights into her career journey and future plans at Foellinger. Many of us know that sometimes, speaking about yourself can feel like a tightrope walk—balancing the desire to share your story without coming across as bragging. But Sarah is embracing this challenge with authenticity, opening up about her path and the values that drive her leadership. One thing we can say is, Sarah navigates this balance with poise and charm every day at Foellinger. This isn't just an event, it's networking and starting a conversation on career and growth. So, with only a few tickets left, we hope you grab yours now. We can't wait to see you there! . https://lnkd.in/gk4WumrJ
