I’m proud to report that it’s been a great summer for our future dog park:
- A $5,000 donation pledge from Middle Hope Vet. has been provided to us (we are so very appreciative of them!)
- Our July BEAHIVE Barks fundraiser was a howl and we raised over $1,000!
- We were awarded our 501/c3 tax-deductible status which also enables us to apply for grants.
- All our combined donations and pledges have now brought us to 25% of our fund-raising goal!
- Both our email list and Facebook page continues to grow with excited and enthusiastic area residents
What’s next?
