The Rescue League has raised $6,229,518 of its $12 million goal to expand its 65-year-old shelter.

"This anonymous donor is directly investing in the lives of the at-risk dogs and cats in our community," said Magee Humes, MARL executive director. "It will not only enable us to build a new shelter, but allow us to reach more animals, expand our outreach program and ensure that we will be here saving lives well into the future."
