We thank all our hard-working committee volunteers and members for their help in organizing this huge event, collecting silent auction items, sponsorships and selling and buying tickets. Thanks to one and all for all the support of our event!
We will continue with our interior and exterior construction of our no-kill animal shelter located at 4901 Canton Rd. NW, Carrollton. Ohio as funding is raised.
We have raised the 1.2 million dollars we have invested in our animal shelter without any funding from the county or the state, but solely through memberships, grants, endowment gifts, gifts of wills, and our special events and fundraising efforts since 2007. We put the “shell” of the shelter up June of 2015. We gave ourselves 10 years to complete it and open it. We are hoping to finish our shelter and open in the summer of 2025!
Any and all donations are welcome and appreciated to help us keep going!
