Help Build Hope for a New Neenah Animal Shelter
The Neenah Animal Shelter (NAS) has been providing lifesaving services to the people and animals of Neenah and its surrounding communities since 1962. The NAS shelter building, however, has become woefully inadequate, inefficient and outdated. We have reached the point where repairs are nothing but temporary fixes, diverting resources away from caring for the animals and helping the community. The most fiscally and organizationally responsible solution to ensure that NAS continues to be a vital resource for our community is to build a new facility.
NAS began its capital campaign planning in 2019 with a feasibility study. In January 2020, a capital campaign committee formed, and that September the quiet phase of the campaign was launched. To date, more than $1.7 million has been raised of the $2 million goal, and a 3.5-acre land parcel donated. The new shelter building will include space needed for increased community services including educational programs, training classes, space for pets in crisis and low-cost vaccination and spay/neuter clinics. It will also feature an energy-efficient, state-of-the-art ventilation system to ensure animals are provided a safe, comfortable environment that minimizes stress, reduces illness and decreases length of stay.

A new facility ensures NAS can provide the resources to expand as the needs of our community increase.
Building Progress!
A sneak peek of the interior of the building! Boldt and their team are making great headway and are on track to finish the building by the early July goal! We're starting to make detailed decisions, such as flooring and kennel wash hoses. So many things to think about!
