FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Lexington, KY – August 25, 2025 – The Lexington Humane Society (LHS) is proud to announce that its main campus has been officially renamed the Susan Malcomb Humane Campus in recognition of Susan Malcomb’s extraordinary dedication and support of the organization.
For decades, former LHS president Susan Malcomb has been a steadfast advocate for animal welfare, leading LHS in providing compassionate care, facilitating adoptions, and promoting lifelong, responsible pet ownership. Her commitment has made a lasting impact on thousands of animals.
