“For over twenty years, the Humane Society of Putnam County (HSPC) has served Putnam County and surrounding areas. Triumphing through financial difficulties, the HSPC continues to benefit the community today, assisting in the rehabilitation and placement of abandoned or unwanted animals in need of good homes.

The Humane Society of Putnam County’s mission is to educate the community on the importance of spaying and neutering dogs and cats and responsible pet ownership. When the shelter is open, the HSPC works to provide the community with a safe haven for abandoned, unwanted or homeless dogs and cats, and to make every effort to find new homes for those animals which would make good pets. The HSPC is a private, not for profit (501c3) organization.”

The Temple of the Hallowed Gods supports incarcerated Pagan inmates by helping to build libraries for various facilities. While prison Chapels may choose to purchase book for witches and pagans in their facilities, there are often very limited titles available.

Through the work of Tamrha Richadson, a volunteer in the IDOC since 2012, Pagan groups in both Rockville Women’s Correctional Facilty and Indiana Women’s Prison now have private libraries for circles within these facilities. With community support, libraries can be built for other IDOC facilities in the state.

SIPPD attendees can bring new or used books, or even donate to the online fundraiser at the link below.
