Menands, NY – The Mohawk Hudson Humane Society (MHHS) invites community members to attend a free seminar, "Foster Care for Animals," on Wednesday, February 26, from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. This informative and interactive session will take place at the Society’s Lisa Mitzen Animal Care Center, located at 3 Oakland Avenue in Menands. Use 193 Broadway for GPS.

Led by Jillian Leibach, MHHS Senior Director of Animal Pathways, the seminar offers insights into the rewarding experience of fostering animals.
