CHICAGO, IL – Markoff Law is a law firm with a first-class reputation founded on quality services and results. During the holiday season, the Markoff Law team decided to show its support for the Anti-Cruelty Society located in Chicago.
Founded in 1899, The Anti-Cruelty Society is a comprehensive animal welfare organization whose mission is to build a community of caring by helping pets and educating people through adoption and clinic programs.
“Each year around the holidays, Markoff Law contributes to organizations near and dear to the hearts of our team members,” says Markoff Law partner Steven Markoff. “This year, one of those organizations we decided to support was the Anti-Cruelty Society. Many of us at the firm have pets that come from shelters or rescue centers and this donation is a small way to give back to the community of volunteers and professionals that ensure that every pet in every shelter is taken care of before finding their forever home.”
The Anti-Cruelty Society
From what started as four compassionate women from Chicago meeting on January 19, 1899 to discuss Chicago’s forgotten animal population, The Anti-Cruelty Society has emerged as a society of devoted and caring people helping animals. In 1904, The Anti-Cruelty Society opened the doors of its first small animal shelter. The shelter provided refuge and adoption services for Chicago’s unhoused domestic animal population.
After 124 years in service to the pet community across the country, the Anti-Cruelty Society now has programs from pet adoptions to low-cost spay and neuter services to humane education, cruelty investigations and rescue. The Anti-Cruelty Society works to raise awareness about the needs of animals. They provide rehabilitation and treatment, as well as classes and programs from pet loss to pet first aid, not to mention a free behavior helpline to provide access to information about pet care. As a community of caring, The Anti-Cruelty Society promotes responsible pet ownership and works together with the communities they service to help animals find “peace, comfort, and happiness.”
