Hudson Gateway Realtor Foundation Donates To SPCA Of Westchester

BRIARCLIFF MANOR, NY — The Hudson Gateway Realtor Foundation, the charitable arm of the Hudson Gateway Association of REALTORS®, recently donated $1,000 to the SPCA of Westchester, which recently completed a multi-year, multi-million dollar renovation and expansion.

Founded in 1883, the SPCA of Westchester is one of the oldest humane societies in the United States. Its new 27,000-square-foot animal rescue center is located at the same spot as the original SPCA. Today, the SPCA can accommodate up to 250 animals and supports more than 4,000 orphaned animals and pets each year with its many rescue and community outreach programs.

“We are so grateful to the HG Realtor Foundation for their incredible gift to support the SPCA Westchester’s Humane Law Enforcement Unit,” said Lisa Bonanno-Spence, SPCA Director of Development. “This life-saving program, which keeps our community animals safe, is only possible thanks to generous friends like the HG Realtor Foundation.”

The SPCA’s Humane Law Enforcement Unit is also the only animal welfare organization authorized by New York State to enforce the laws as they relate to animal cruelty in Westchester County. In addition, Cody’s Clinic offers the public low-cost spay/neuter surgeries, examination, vaccinations and testing for disease. Since the clinic opened in 1983, the SPCA has spayed/neutered more than 70,000 dogs and cats.

Established in 2004 and relaunched in 2013, the foundation has donated thousands of dollars to qualified community-based charities and nonprofits that serve the housing, hunger, health, happiness, and humane needs of citizens throughout the Hudson Valley.
