Our bake sale will benefit the Humane Society in both Meriden and Newington.

 We are also collecting pet food and kitty litter to be donated to local animal shelters.

Any donations are appreciated.

The Humane Society is an amazing place that provides a safe shelter for homeless, abandoned and needy animals until the can find a place and family to call their own.

Won't you consider donating an item, or even some of your time? They are always looking for volunteers to walk, or just play with the animals in their shelters. If you are able to help, please contact them at:

or 203-238-3650 (Meriden)

860-666-3337 (Newington)

Thank you.
