    Shelter Our Strays (S.O.S.)

    S.O.S. is a group of animal lovers committed to raising funds for a new Animal Control Shelter in Greenwich. The Town’s current Shelter, located on the grounds of the Bruce Museum, is in unacceptable condition. The Town of Greenwich has allocated land for the new Shelter and will oversee its construction. Of the $750,000 that the Bruce Museum has committed to raising for the project, S.O.S. has already raised over $370,000.

    Donations of all sizes are welcome. Contribution forms are on the Town of Greenwich’s website from the Animal Control department, or call the Bruce Museum at (203) 869-6786, Ext. 328.
