I’m excited to share that our first delivery was a success! We were able to donate around 200 pounds of pet supplies to the Eau Claire Community Humane Association - ECCHA. It has been an eventful two weeks, and I want to recognize the locations that hosted donation boxes, as well as everyone who generously contributed!

Additionally, we are looking for one more driver. This driver will be heading to Sun Prairie and Watertown. If you know anyone traveling that way tomorrow, please have them reach out!

Hello everyone!

I just wanted to remind you that there are only 4 days left until the delivery of donations! This has been such a busy and fun event, and we’ve raised a lot of awareness about what these shelters do. I can not wait to get these supplies out and help the shelters, even in the smallest way!

If you are still interested in donating, there are 6 locations where you can drop off items:
1. Pet Supplies Plus Howard/Suamico, WI
2. Pulaski Warehouse Inc.
3. Family Pet Food Center
4. Buddy's Vets (East and West locations)
5. Twin Artesian Stables, LLC

All of these places have graciously offered their locations to hold a drop box, and most have donated as well!

We are actively seeking volunteers to assist with a vital supply delivery on Friday, November 1st. We will be delivering supplies to eight shelters, seven of which are a few hours away, and your support is essential to ensure this goes smoothly. If you can help with the drive, please get in touch with me via Facebook Messenger or email me at [email protected]. Together, we can make a significant impact!

Thank you!

**Good Morning!**

We recently received several pictures of animals affected by the hurricanes who have been relocated to Wisconsin to make room for others down south. Please take a look at these adorable faces now living at the Humane Society of Jefferson County. These animals serve as a reminder of why we are conducting this drive: to support shelters that are helping those in need down south.

I was able to communicate with staff from the Humane Society of Jefferson County (WI) and got answers to a few questions. Please see the details below.

What kind of impact will these donations have to the shelter?
"These donations allow us to care for both unexpected and expected animals. We have taken two emergency transports to help clear shelters in hurricane danger zones, so that they have room for lost pets rescued during the storm."

Can you let us know how many animals you have received because of this? Do any of them need extra attention?
"So far, we have taken in 8 dogs and 39 cats to help clear shelters in hurricane danger zones. They all needed care, updated shots, and many needed spayed or neutered."

What is the impact of taking on this many pets at one time have on the facility as a whole?
"By taking in these additional animals, it takes extra time cleaning, vetting, caring for, and adopting out from our staff and volunteers. Not to mention the space and extra food and supplies needed. But we believe this is important to support the wellbeing of animals and our neighbors all over."

If there is any more additional information that you would like to share, please feel free to do so.
"Our Shelter Manager, Heather, recently helped out at a rescue hub in South Carolina and was on the most recent transport of animals to Wisconsin shelters. We are proud of her compassion and dedication!"
