Humane Society of Monroe County continues to provide animal care
By Tom Adamich
I recently wrote about the good works of the Civic Improvement Society – the women’s organization that was active in Monroe from 1901 to 1914. One of their efforts was to plant the early seeds of what would become a humane society serving Monroe County’s needs to help animals and provide animal control services to Monroe County citizens.
However, it wasn’t until 1954 and through the efforts of Florence Foshag and others that the Monroe County Humane Society (now known as the Humane Society of Monroe County) was incorporated.

This is in support of the 2020-21 United Way annual fundraising campaign, with the money meant to help the agency and its partners manage increased needs relating to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It has been a harsh year for all non-profits, said Connie Carroll, Executive Director United Way of Monroe/Lenawee Counties. The La-Z-Boy Foundation has supported the United Way from the early years and their continued commitment to the community will help all the organizations we support.
