Members of the Humane Society of Freeborn County, Vikki Jenkins (left) and Christy Forman, stand in front of the constructed kennels outside the Humane Society shelter promoting a new fundraising program, “Cans For Critters.” The program is part of the effort of the Humane Society to go green along with doing their own part in recycling materials and containers used down at the shelter. The money from Cans For Critters is used to help with the overwhelming expenses of running the shelter, such as medical, food and veterinary costs. To aide the shelter, collect your rinsed, emptied aluminum containers in a garbage bag and drop them off at the shelter located at 101 James Ave., Albert Lea. -- Submitted photo
