LIVE: Progress Continues On East Greenwich Animal Protection League’s New Building
Saturday, June 24, 2017
Tammy Flanagan, Executive Director of the East Greenwich Animal Protection League (EGAPL), says they expect to be operational with their dog kennels within three months as they continue to raise funds to finish the other rooms in their building.
Through the help of donors and ample fundraising, Flanagan says they are closer than they’ve ever been to having their own facility after years of housing animals at other locations.
By having a shelter, Flanagan says it opens a whole new pathway to save more dogs.

The EGAPL shelter location is at 44 Worthington Road in Cranston.
