We raised $920 for Live Like Roo Foundation Thank you for all of your support! Together we can all make a difference

Last week when Pet Fest had to be postponed, I was so upset for many reasons, but one of the main is that vendors worked SO HARD on the items they were going to sell at the fest. I know how much heart they put into everything them make. A 2nd reason, was that we were losing out on much-needed funds.

Imelda from Tanimu had made an incredible pinata filled with so many goodies. She decided to open it up as a raffle, with all the funds going to us. After a few days it built momentum and local small businesses kept adding items.

I sit here in tears at the generosity. Tanimu transferred $920 to Live Like Roo tonight. Imelda is an incredible friend with THE biggest heart and I also want to thank all the businesses that stepped up to take part in this with her inspiration:

Copilot Dog Training

Another Chance Training LLC
Boujee Pups Accessories
Doggy Gym and Swim

PLEASE SUPPORT THESE businesses. How incredibly generous of them to donate their time, their HANDMADE items, their creativity and their art. It means the world to us. Thank you to EVERYONE that bought raffle tickets. You changed lives. Just incredible.
With sincere gratitude and love,
Sarah

Hi everyone tomorrow’s event has been postponed due to weather safety concerns. We support Live Like Roo Foundation decision in putting the safety of everyone first and can’t wait to join them next time.
