Review for Blount County Humane Society, Maryville, TN, USA
I began volunteering with BCHS in July of 2013. BCHS is a volunteer driven organization that trying to create a No-Kill Community in Blount County. The Shelter Pet Program that is their partnership with the City of Maryville's Animal Shelter that serves Maryville, Alcoa, and Rockford has achieved a 99.8% save rate. Prior to this program, the save rate was as often as low as 20% with many healthy adoptable animals being euthanized. They provide all of the veterninary care that animals entering the Maryville Shelter receive and provide vet care and meds for all of the animals in their care. BCHS is completely dependent on the communty for support......and they have a dedicated team of volunteers helping the animals every day because Every Life Matters!
In response to previous reviews, all of the financials are available under the category "legal" on the website www.blountcountyhumanesociety.org. There are no money "secrets". Their largest expense is vet care and boarding for injured or sick animals.
These are good people doing good things for animals......
