Our dedication to the Ocooch Mountain Humane Society (OMHS) is driven by our unwavering commitment to its mission and long-term success. We, a passionate group of dedicated volunteers and supporters of OMHS, have become deeply concerned about the current direction in which the organization is heading under the leadership of its long-term board members. It is with heavy hearts that we are calling for a vote of no confidence in these individuals to ensure that the values and mission of OMHS are preserved and that transparency is prioritized.

OMHS has been a beacon of hope for countless animals in our community, providing shelter, care, and a chance for a better life. However, recent actions—or lack thereof—by the board members have raised alarm among those of us who hold OMHS dear. We have witnessed a deviation from the organization's mission and observed a concerning opacity in decision-making processes. These issues threaten the very essence of OMHS and undermine the hard work of staff and volunteers, compromising the welfare of animals that rely on us.

Transparency and accountability are fundamental to any thriving organization. Yet, our attempts to engage with the board about these issues have been met with resistance, leaving us with little choice but to seek a change in leadership. We believe in the potential of OMHS to be a model organization, one that is open about its goals, dedicated to its mission, and transparent with its supporters and the community it serves.

By calling for the resignation of board members, we hope to initiate a shift towards a more inclusive leadership approach, one that aligns with the core mission and values of OMHS. This is not just about correcting the course of the organization, but about honoring the trust that the public and our community place in us to care for vulnerable animals.

We appeal to all who share our vision for a transparent and mission-driven leadership at OMHS to support this call. By signing this petition, you stand with us in advocating for the animals who depend on us and for the future of OMHS as a respected and transparent organization.

Please sign this petition to initiate a vote of no confidence and help secure a brighter future for OMHS.
