We at S.H.A.I.D. know that we are blessed with many friends of S.H.A.I.D. whose hearts are open to the plight of our homeless animals. Whether you show your support by adopting, volunteering or donating, please know that you are appreciated. This Valentine’s season, we are asking you to consider making a financial contribution to their care.
In 2009, partnering with you and others in our community, we have been able to:
· Take in and provide temporary homes for 489 homeless animals.
· Adopt out 105 dogs, 311 cats, 2 bunnies and 2 budgies to loving, forever homes across the province.
· Partner with the South Shore TNR group to spay/ neuter and care for over 200 feral/stray community cats
· Provide financial subsidies to 86 owned pets to ensure their owners were able to have them spayed or neutered.
· Do some much needed repairs on our aging shelter...the roof no longer leaks!
· Provide much needed medication and vet care to those in our care and pay for the care of longer term residents,
meaning that no animal is put to sleep because its time has run out.
With your help we are truly making a difference, one animal at a time. Thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Lynne Ware,
Have-a-Heart Campaign Chair
We invite you help us brighten the Shelter during the dreary days of February by honouring a pet or pet lover, past or present, using this heart and returning it with your donation card. For example, In Memory of..., For…. or write a few more words to honour your pet. Add photos, poems, be as creative as you like!
You may also just wish to send a Valentine heart to the shelter residents or Staff with a few words of encouragement. These kind words are always appreciated. We look forward to hearing from you ! Drop by the shelter and see the resulting display for yourself. You are always welcome to visit.
Donations may also be made securely with a credit card by clicking on "Maker a Donation" in the left hand menu of our home page. |
