Conway Area Humane Society and Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire - North Announce Affiliation
Shelters Combine to Better Serve NH’s Animals
 Conway - The Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire - North (ARL North) and the Animal Rescue League of NH (the League) take pleasure in announcing their formal affiliation effective November 11, 2009. The combined talents of each organization will strengthen the programs and services offered to more than 70 communities in the Granite State.
The Animal Rescue League of NH brings more than 100 years of history and experience to this relationship, which will assist the younger ARL North in becoming more fiscally and operationally resilient.
The League’s current leader Caroline Boyd will serve as the affiliation’s President & CEO with the leadership teams of both organizations reporting to her. “This affiliation is an exciting time in our organizations’ histories,” said Boyd, “and I know that by combining efforts we will be able to realize the benefits of collaboration while still ensuring that each community retains a critical local resource.” In addition to a unified management team, two members of the ARL North Board will serve on the League’s Board and vice versa.
“Together, we can help more animals. Our shared missions of serving animals and the community brought us together and we believe that our whole will be greater than the sum of our parts,” said ARL North Executive Director, Virginia Moore.
Beyond the retention of each organization’s current community services, additional anticipated benefits of this alliance include:
• More animals' lives will be saved in New Hampshire;
• The affiliation will create efficiencies and leverage management and development expertise, bringing additional resources to bear on the animal welfare services provided by the two organizations; and
• While each shelter will be sharing best practices and operational strategies, the structure will ensure that community resources and assets will stay within the community of origin.
This winning partnership links the 105-year-old Animal Rescue League of NH, under the superb management experience of CEO Caroline Boyd, with the energy and additional service area of the six-year-old Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire - North. In this case, one plus one equals three. New
Hampshire can only benefit from more of such affiliations,” said Lew Feldstein, President of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation.
Each year the League and ARL North help more than 2,500 animals find homes and help countless more through animal cruelty investigations, obedience training, humane education, spay/neuter programs, and food pantries.
