This
week, the Sierra County Humane Society is reminding its members and
animal loving friends who reside or vacation in our area to save their
Bullocks receipts for the animal welfare organization and Desert Haven
Animal Refuge, the no-kill animal sanctuary that it owns and operates.
Bullocks Grocery Store is well-known throughout this area to be one of
its strongest community oriented businesses. Not only Bullocks is
valued for being customer oriented, but it also financially supports
local 501-c-3 non-profit organizations such as ours with its
Cash-for-Clubs program. The program has been in existence for many
years now. When you save your Bullocks receipts for our animal welfare
organization and you drop them off at Paws & Claws Thrift Shoppe,
the Williamsburg Post Office or the TorC Public Library, Josephine, our
organization Charter Member and long-standing volunteer, routinely
collects them. She also tallies them for us. We receive $2 per each
thousand dollars worth of Bullocks receipts that we receive. The money
collected helps fund the organization’s spay-neuter and spay-a-stray
programs.
We
also collect aluminum cans. Our can corral is located adjacent to Paws
& Claws Thrift Shoppe. Kevin, Jack and Larry ensure that the cans
are routinely transported and redeemed for $$ at a recycling center. The
money collected also helps fund the SCHS sterilization program.
Applications for the SCHS Spay-Neuter program continue to be made
available at the TorC Police Station since our organization started the
program in 1991.
This
week’s wish list: Canned cat food – dog milk bones and treats - swamp
cooler and lawn mower in good working condition - someone to help
install a sink and replace a window in the kitchen of the Eagle Point
mobile home. If you can help in some way, let us know. We can be reached
at 575-894-2639 and at weR4pets@gmail.com. Visit us at www.DesertHavenAnimalRefuge.com, www.Facebook.com/pawsnclawsthriftshoppe and www.Facebook.com/DesertHavenAnimalRefuge. Our mailing address is: Desert Haven Animal Refuge, POB 638, Williamsburg, NM 87942.
