The Humane Society of Oakville Milton and Halton (HSOMH) has received a landmark donation this week of a whopping $10 million.

The animal shelter says the donation comes from long-time supporter and philanthropist Klaus Bytzek.

This contribution comes at a pivotal moment as HSOMH says it has sold its current property to the Town of Oakville and is actively planning a new, modern animal centre.

This expanded facility will allow them to care for more animals, support more families, and deliver enhanced programs and services in a purpose-built space.

They have been in operation since 1936 and at this current location since 1951.
