On this episode one of a two part series on Close to Home, host Maureen Schwab and co-host Maggie Madsen welcome Lindsay McCormack, Chief Development Officer at Second Chance Animal Services, and a very special four-legged guest Holly. Founded in 1999, Second Chance Animal Services is one of New England’s largest animal welfare organizations, operating community veterinary hospitals in North Brookfield, Southbridge, Springfield, and Worcester. Lindsay is excited to announce their newly acquired property at 600 Park Avenue which will be the home of an expanded Community Veterinary Hospital, about three times the size of their current Worcester hospital. They discuss funding for the project, and how you can get involved or donate to support their ongoing mission.
