The Swift Current SPCA’s Homeward Bound Campaign Launch Breakfast, held on November 13, 2025 at Living Sky Casino, was a sold-out event with all 250 tickets snapped up by enthusiastic supporters.
During the breakfast, the SPCA proudly announced the official name of the new facility — the Stauber Family Memorial Animal Shelter — in recognition of the generous bequest from the Estate of Lori Stauber and the ongoing compassion of the Swift Current community.
Tyler Lemieux, SPCA Vice President, spoke about the importance of moving forward with construction now to meet the community’s growing animal care needs. He highlighted the shelter’s focus on sustainability through municipal partnerships, the creation of an on-site crematorium and memorial space, and the critical role of local donors in ensuring a strong, compassionate future for animal welfare in the Southwest.
The SPCA extends heartfelt thanks to all who attended and continue to support this “Community Journey for Paws in Need.”
The event was proudly sponsored by Anderson & Company.
April 2025
We officially broke ground on the Stauber Family Memorial Animal Shelter on April 26th, 2025.
This marks the beginning of a transformational new chapter, as our current building is outdated and no longer meeting the needs of the animals, staff, or community. Over the years, the wear and tear have made it increasingly difficult to maintain a clean and healthy environment.
With shovels in hand, we've taken the first step. We're looking for a few major partners and naming rights to come forward. We'll be sharing updates throughout the community journey for paws in need.
Thanks to the unwavering support of our volunteer board, generous donors, dedicated staff, and municipal leaders, we are taking bold steps forward. We are deeply grateful for the support of this community and look forward to building something truly special together.
