The Humane Society of Washington County has partnered with Helen Woodward Animal Center to give shelter animals a loving home.

During the holiday season, the Humane Society is reaching out to community partners, schools, businesses and organization to become Shelter SANTAS (Send A Nifty Treat Along).

Each participating partner will receive an oversized stocking to fill with nonperishable items. After each stocking is filled, it will be passed along with each pet that is adopted.

For more information, call Katherine Cooker at 301-733-2060, ext. 237, or Kim McGlaughlin at ext. 239.
