An Open Invitation - Help Berea Animal Rescue Grow!
We are currently looking for individuals wishing to join the new Strategic Planning/ Capital Campaign Committee for the Berea Animal Rescue. Our little shelter desperately needs to grow.

We need to provide more extensive training and health care options. And, the list goes on.

- strategic planning
- capital campaigns
- real estate
- business planning
- construction
- architecture
- engineering
- fund-raising
- or if you just love animals and want to make a difference
Please consider attending our next meeting!
