| OUR MISSION |
 As the Friends of the Charlton Animal Shelter (F.O.C.A.S.) it is our mission to raise funds to improve the housing and care for homeless and displaced animals in the Town of Charlton, MA.
Not only do we wish to improve the shelter's physical structure, we would also like to provide the funds needed for special equipment, educational programs and services, including public awareness relating to animal health, disease and cruelty issues.
As a non-profit organization, funds will be raised through donations, membership fees, events and grants.
We look forward to working with you!
Visit our How To Help page for other ways you can assist. Thanks!

Construction Update. Check out the slide show....
F.O.C.A.S. is seeking experienced contractors or those skilled in construction to volunteer their skills. Construction of the new animal shelter is well underway! The building has been rough framed, the roof has been shingled, garage doors installed, doors and windows installed, and the siding is on. The floor is graded, stops are in, and the concrete will be poured soon! If you are interested in helping out, please email us at info@focascharlton.org with your name, phone number and brief note on what your skill is, ie, framer, insulation, plasterer, painter, etc. and we will contact you when we reach that point in the construction where we need you. Things are moving fast and we hope we can count on you! |
