[Congressional Record (Bound Edition), Volume 156 (2010), Part 11] [Senate] [Page 15139] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov]HUMANE SOCIETY OF PULASKI COUNTY Mrs. LINCOLN. Mr. President, today I congratulate staff members and volunteers of the Humane Society of Pulaski County as they celebrate the 10- year anniversary of their current shelter. I commend them for reaching this milestone. The mission of the Humane Society of Pulaski County is to rescue, care for and find homes for abandoned, abused, homeless and unwanted animals. The group provides access to healthy animals for people seeking to adopt pets. In 2009, the Humane Society of Pulaski County adopted out almost 1,000 animals. The Humane Society of Pulaski County is supported solely by donations, fund-raisers, bequests and grants. The group has achieved a 4-star rating from Charity Navigator, which means the smallest percentage of donations is allocated for administrative costs. As a part of the ``Puppy Love'' program, the Humane Society also works throughout the community, taking animals to visit residents of nursing homes, retirement centers, and women's shelters. Puppy Love makes approximately 40 visits to local facilities each year. Mr. President, I again congratulate the staff and volunteers of the Humane Society of Pulaski County as they celebrate this anniversary. I wish them the best in the years to come. ____________________
