Dear Moreno Valley Residents,
I can’t begin to express how much my two dogs, Kayla and Lassie, have enriched my life since I adopted them from the Moreno Valley Animal Shelter. But you and I can show our gratitude for the Shelter and the animals it rescues this Saturday and throughout the month of August as it joins with NBC4/Telemundo to "Clear the Shelters." The annual event, set in Moreno Valley for this Saturday, Aug. 15, features deeply discounted adoption fees of just $20 -- a savings in some cases of as much as $100.
But we can do even more by donating some of that savings back to the Shelter. The "Clear the Shelters" campaign is partnering with GreaterGood.org to provide matching funds for every dollar donated to the Moreno Valley Animal Shelter any time during August up to a maximum total match of $10,000.
Due to coronavirus, Animal Shelter visits are by appointment only. So those looking for a pet to adopt should use the Pet Search function on the City website to see an up-to-date list of available pets.
Shelter hours are Tues. - Fri., 10:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m., and Sat., 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. It can be reached by phone at 951-413-3790, and by email at animalshelter@moval.org.
