COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

The Central Missouri Humane Society announced in a Friday press release that its anonymous donor who is matching up to $2.5 million in donations has extended the match through the end of August.

Previous reporting says the money will be put toward its new campus it intends to build on a 17.5-acre property on East Brown School Road. It also states that CMHS does not receive funding from national humane organizations.

The total cost of the new building is estimated around $25 million.

The original donation match was announced for the month of July. A Friday press release says CMHS raised more than $277,000 last month from donors after the match was announced.
