New building

Our vision for a new shelter

The time has come to replace our facility, and we are seeking your support to make this project a reality.

The Lillian Allbon Animal Shelter has been active in Cumberland County since 1987, providing a necessary service to our community. The time has come to replace our facility, and we are seeking your support to make this project a reality.

We have been operating from our current building for many years. When our current location was opened, it was not purpose-built to be an animal shelter. Not only have we outgrown the facility; the building is not efficient, and we are running into costly issues, increasing operating costs and repairs.

Our vision is to build a new facility worthy of the animals we protect and the community we serve.

The cost of the project will be approximately $1.1 million. The shelter has allocated $200,000 from previous fundraising efforts to be the seed money for this capital campaign.
