The Butler County Humane Society talked dollars at its February meeting deciding the details on fundraisers coming up.

A new fundraiser the club will be undertaking is selling Boston Butts. The organization has purchased 12 cases, or about 100 Boston Butts to sell to the community at $30 each.

Vice President Kandys Killough asked members to dedicate selling at least 10 tickets each. There will be no charge to have the Boston Butt cooked.

The next fundraiser discussed was the annual Dog-U-Tante Ball that will be on March 3 at Cambrian Ridge.

“If anyone knows people that can be sponsors to put their names on the banner, the prices run from $100, $250, $500 and more,” Killough said. “If you know someone who has a business, have them get in touch with Meredith.”

Meredith Mann is the treasurer of the group as well as the organizer of the Dog-U-Tante Ball. She can be reached at 334-354-7400 to purchase tickets or find out more information.

Killough said the cost to put the ball on is about $2,600, and she asked members to donate for the silent auction.

The last fundraiser the group is working on is the annual T-shirt for the group.

Kimberly Matthews has worked with Mary Croley to paint a picture of cats as well as dogs to be placed on the T-shirt this year.

“I’m talking to a possible sponsor next week,” Matthews said. “It’s a good possibility that the T-shirt will be paid for and we can lower the price to $15 instead of $20. I’ve ordered 60 dogs and 40 cats. They are just darling.”

If all goes well with the T-shirts, Matthews hopes to purchase the prints and sell them as well for the Humane Society.

“I was thinking if we sell 75 T-shirts, I thought we could print about 30 prints and sell those as well,” Matthews said.
