Burlington County Animal Shelter to participate in “Clear the Shelters”

Adoption Fees to be waived on Saturday, August 19.

Burlington County Freeholder Director Bruce Garganio announced that the Burlington County Animal Shelter will be participating in NBC10’s “Clear the Shelters” event on Saturday, August 19. The one day event will take place at the Burlington County Animal Shelter from 11 a.m. — 4 p.m.

“Burlington County is proud to once again be participating in the “Clear the Shelters” event,” said Director Garganio. “This is a wonderful national effort put together by NBC Owned Television Stations and Telemundo that helps find loving homes for animals in need.”

In 2016, “Clear the Shelters” was responsible for almost 54,000 pets finding their forever homes.

“Through our efforts last year, the Burlington County Animal Shelter found 57 animals their forever homes during this one day event,” Garganio continued. “In honor of this year’s event, the Burlington County Animal Shelter is waiving all adoption fees for approved applicants this Saturday.”

“I ask the residents of Burlington County to always remember to adopt not shop. Let’s break last year’s record and find even more animals loving forever homes this year!” concluded Garganio.

The Burlington County Animal Shelter is located at 35 Academy Drive in Westampton, behind the Burlington County Library. For more information, call (609) 265–5073 or visit the county website at http://www.co.burlington.nj.us/168/Animal-Shelter.
