The OHS Telethon to End Petlessness was a Huge Success Thousands of television viewers tuned into the Oregon Humane Society's Tenth Annual Telethon to End Petlessness, sponsored by Subaru, and set an all-time record for supporting animals in need. Televised live on KATU Channel 2, the four-hour telethon succeeded in two of its most close to the heart endeavors: finding homes for 78 dogs, cats, rabbits, and rodents over the day and raising over $260,000 to help homeless and unwanted pets. "The telethon is a reflection of the compassion that our society has for animals and a measure of how valuable the services of OHS are to our community," states Sharon Harmon, Executive Director of the Oregon Humane Society. “Every dollar donated stays right here in this community helping the animals in your neighborhood.” This year highlighted Oregon's own Special Humane Investigators on patrol and saw them in action. Viewers went behind the scenes in our state-of-the-art shelter, one of the newest and technologically advanced shelters in the nation. Special segments introduced the many wonderful people who go above and beyond for the animals, from dedicated volunteers to some extraordinary children.
