New Board Members Welcome!
Everyone here has high hopes for the new group of Board Members. I think we finally have a group of people with the same interests working towards the same goal. In fact, one of the very first opportunities to get involved with the shelter was our Grocery Fundraiser. For the first time ever, I saw ALL board members manning the grocery sacks! What a group! The Board, amongst other volunteers, set up a table with a donation jar on top, and collected donations for bagging groceries.
Hy-Vee was an excellent choice for publicity; there were a lot of people throughout the day. Overall, we made over $300.00 in donations!

Our shelter has 6 rooms of Kennels like the ones you see here. At any one time, we could house over 50 dogs!

Several groups and organizations help the shelter pets with their own fundraisers. The Kappa Kappa Gamma House of Knox College raised over 200.00 for the shelter pets by selling PAWS. As you can see, they are animal lovers too!
