On Saturday, October 24, 2015, the Muhlenberg County Humane Society sponsored a 5K Dog Run/Walk fundraising event to help support the needs of their furry occupants. The event raised a total of $600 and also made the community aware of the many adorable pets available for adoption through the Humane Society. Four students from MJCC volunteered their time to assist with the 5K. The students ran four dogs which was a great opportunity for the pets to get out of their kennel for some much needed exercise.

The Muhlenberg County Humane Society is also a Work Based Learning site for MJCC students to obtain community service hours.
